На конкурс принимаются идеи по созданию в Осло музея, посвященного истории дизайна. Музей должен совместить в себе масштабный архив материалов и центр развития новых дизайнерских направлений. И, конечно, здание, которое станет своего рода «домом» дизайна, должно иметь соответствующий архитектурный облик.

The field of Design is defined by the areas where design process can be applied: architecture, urban space, clothing, furniture, consumer products, printed materials, digital interfaces, social structures, websites etc. But design encompasses much more than form and function. It is a reflection of the prevailing zeitgeist. Design is not a being, but an event, it is not a thing but an impact.
Design is born out of our desire to elevate our experiences, both practically and emotionally. Design encourages us to explore and experiment, and thus transcend into an improved world. Human ability to use design as an expressive system and a process to develop solutions is evident all the way from primitive times.
Despite its diversity w.r.t to different areas of intervention, design is omnipresent and invisible. Whether we’re aware of it or not, design surrounds us, and can be found in the tiniest of places and forms. Design is that phenomena that has power of changing perceptions and steering behavior.
The aim of this competition is to create an iconic ‘Museum of Design’ in Oslo that would celebrate the domain of design and become a fitting tribute to the field as a whole. Design has been largely neglected as a museological domain worldwide, apart from some certain sections in major art museums dedicated to individual designers. Entering into a new decade, the ‘Museum of Design’ must generate awareness and reflect upon the journey of design through time. The Museum of Design must become an archive and a hub for development of future design movements and innovations.
