Although slightly surprised by the entrance cost, was not disappointed. In fact by being a smaller exhibition space enabled us to enjoy the exhibits more. Particularly enjoyed 'Design of the Year' on the first floor, I so want musical postcards! Overall a well spaced and thought out place to visit to look at the evolution of design. One very small...

At just under 12 pounds the entry fee is quite high, however for those who are interested in design, past, present and future, this small museum is ideal. Would also be good for older children. There is a cafe on site, (has outdoor seating) that makes a great coffee. There is also a shop with a lot of interesting objects,... More

We used our London Attractions 2for1 train discount which meant it cost £11.95 for two people which we thought was very reasonable. The exhibition on the top floor - Extraordinary Stories - is really interesting for both adults and children. It shows everything from the angle poise lamp to the design of traffic lights and road signs. The first floor... More

I really enjoyed what they had, for someone who visits London museums fairly regularly this costs no more than many special exhibition at the Tate, V&A, British museum etc. But for day visitors to London you can probably do more. Having said that they currently have the best design of 2013 which was great and varied in subject matter. Especially... More

My partner had been so excited to go here as he studied Graphic Design at university but when we left we couldn't help but feel slightly dissapointed. There are 2 (small) floors of galleries and even through we took in every exhibit we were in and out in 50 minutes. A little ridiculous considering they are charging £10.75 entry fee... More

It's almost £12 per person so four of us coughed up almost £48. There was some good and interesting stuff but no where near enough interest for that sort of cost.

Really enjoyed the design awards exhibition. Covered fashion, graphical, digital and objects. Some interactive displays as well. Good range of items with interesting background info. There was also a small exhibition on first floor which was a kind of visual thought experiment which was interesting but compact. The other (maybe permanent?) exhibition was ok but not amazingly exciting. We paid... More

I took a group of students to the Designs of the Year 2013 exhibition and spent 4 hours there. I didn't pre-book so didn't get the advantages they offer student groups. It's pricey to get in considering some galleries like the Saatchi Gallery are free, but the staff were terrific and did all they could to help the party. The... More

Its quite expensive to visit the Design Museum but the Designer of the Year exhibition is worth seeing, there are some really impressive items that would be great to see come into production and of course it was nice to see the Olympic torch up close and appreciate its design. We actually ran out of time and didn't have as... More
