The museums’ priority is to inspire architects- design- and crafts students.

The museum aims to inspire an interest in furniture studies. It is aimed primarily at those studying architecture, design and crafts, but everyone with an interest in design is welcome. The collection of Scandinavian and international objects from different periods illustrates the development of functions, materials and techniques. The museum aims to create a platform for the development of tomorrow’s furniture design.

The museum organizes workshops for design colleges. The idea is to give the students a design-historical overview with the opportunity for in-depth study.

Arranging seminars on relevant topics is an important part of the museum’s activities. Speakers with different experiences provide broad perspectives and inspiring ideas.

To stimulate collaborations between design students and furniture manufacturers, the museum organizes network meetings on a regular basis.
