Deyan Sudjic, Director of the Design Museum, said, “We are hugely grateful to Phillips for their support and they have been a great partner for the new Design Museum campaign. The Design Museum is so fortunate to have had the help of so many of the world’s leading designers, architects, artists and galleries in making a huge step forward in its fundraising campaign to open its new home in Kensington on 24 November 2016. Time for Design has been a great showcase for the new Design Museum, and a demonstration of the range of its programme, from technology, to fashion, furniture to architecture.”
