The ground-floor gallery showcases the first permanent display chosen from the museum’s vast furniture collection, including rarely seen works by Charles and Ray Eames, along with recent acquisitions like Dutch designer Joris Laarman’s 3D-printed aluminum Gradient Chair and Mali designer Cheick Diallo’s Ségou Rocker.
In the basement, hundreds more furnishings and accessories are visible through glass walls, including sculptures and prototypes from the Eames estate, and classic lamps by Alvar Aalto, among others.
“You get a glimpse of what there is,” said Mateo Kries, the museum’s director. “You see that it goes on and on and on.”
