MAK DESIGN LAB - located in the former Study Collection, visitors will find nearly 2,000 sqm of inspiring connections between art and
everyday life.
The MAK DESIGN LAB defines design as the key force for a new quality of life. As a result, design is cheek by jowl with everyday life: Visitors will encounter themed areas like Cooking, Production, Sitting, or Communicating. They are invited to join in and start a conversation with the museum.
Which products from the past have a future?
Is local production a viable alternative?
Is design about art?
What will tomorrow's status symbols look like?
Where is digitalization taking us?
What is luxury?
Does being a consumer make me happy?
The MAK DESIGN LAB has set the Collection in motion: It pursues a comprehensive understanding of design and incorporates a wide array of applied arts from across the centuries as well as from the present day. The objects form an experimental arrangement that makes it possible to experience connections beyond the confines of time and subject.
