Designers In Residence is the museum's ongoing programme supporting emerging talent within the field of design. Each designer will create work that stimulates discourse, reflection and community, through site-specific installations on the ground floor of the Museum. Throughout the residencies there will opportunities to meet the designers and obtain a unique insight into the design and development of their work.
