Discover never-before-shown material from one of the world’s largest architecture collections together with ArkDes curators.

With the new concept of Unboxing, we explore drawings, sketches, and photographs from the collection’s four million items. Every afternoon, we unveil new folders from the archives, collectively unpacking and investigating them within the ArkDes Collection exhibition.

Through Unboxing, you get the chance to peek behind the scenes at ArkDes. Here, you can delve into the stories hidden in the museum’s collection, study the drawings closely, and converse with the curators about architecture, design, and construction. What insights can a drawing truly offer, and how is an analog photograph transformed into a digital format?

Tuesday–Sunday, 13:00–16:00.

Closed Mondays.
