Permanent Collection

The Permanent Collection brings together products that have earned the Red Dot Award for exceptional and timeless design. Everyday objects that reveal something extraordinary when you stop and look properly. The collection spans furniture, lighting, household appliances, personal technology and more.

Among the works on display in Singapore is the Sony Aibo, the pioneering robotic companion that changed how the world thinks about the relationship between technology and design. Explore every corner of the museum, where chairs, clocks and light installations are also featured as part of the collection.

What visitors consistently take away is an insight into the thinking behind good design, and the ideas that reshape how they understand the objects of everyday life.

"It's worth to visit this place. It has very unique designs and way of exhibition. I liked the 'Creating your own ideas' on the Ground floor which is very interactive."
