Posetite muzej Dizajna u Kensingtonu
Bästa tid att besöka
Weekday mornings (right at 10am opening) are quietest, especially Tuesday through Thursday. The permanent collection gets less crowded than the temporary exhibitions, so visit those during peak hours instead.
Budgettips
General admission to the permanent collection is free, though special exhibitions carry a ticket fee (around £12-18). Book timed tickets online in advance to skip the queue, and check for free Friday late openings during certain exhibition runs.

Snabba fakta: The Design Museum moved into its current home, a converted 1960s modernist building that once housed the Commonwealth Institute, in 2016 after a £83 million transformation. You'll find over 1,000 objects on display spanning everything from furniture and fashion to typography and digital interfaces.
Höjdpunkter: The museum's stunning parabolic copper roof, originally built for the Commonwealth Institute, was carefully preserved and now floods the interior with natural light through a vast atrium. Look up when you walk in: the swooping ceiling creates an almost cathedral-like atmosphere, while the original concrete hyperbolic paraboloid structure remains completely exposed.

Har du hört talas om gratis guidade vandringar?
Efter att ha rest till över 30 länder finns det en sak jag önskar att någon hade berättat för mig från början, och det förändrade helt hur jag upplever nya städer.
Gratis guidade vandringar. Ja, faktiskt gratis. Ingen kreditkort krävs. Inga fångster.
Lokal guide, 2-3 timmar
Stora sevärdheter, dolda pärlor, lokala historier
100% dricksbaserat
Guider tjänar endast dricks, så de ger sitt absolut bästa
Du ger dricks efter eget tycke
I slutet ger du bara dricks efter eget tycke
Jag har gjort dessa i dussintals städer och de har varit höjdpunkten på nästan varje resa. Om du besöker London, United Kingdom, gör detta din första dag. Du kommer att tacka mig senare.
