PROCESS – Design Drawings from the Rijksmuseum

12 chapters

What role does drawing play in the design process? For the first time, design drawings from the period 1500-1900 have been brought together in Design Museum Den Bosch. On this Third Floor you will discover the story of this period, but also how contemporary designers still use sketches and drawings.

This exhibition was on view in the museum from November 5, 2022 to February 12, 2023
