Design Museum of Denmark and National Gallery

Today was a pretty mellow Saturday as I strolled through the Design Museum of Denmark and the National Gallery of Art. Met some people from KC and Switzerland along the way. The Design Museum was an absolute designers heaven as I stepped back in time through fashion, graphic design and... FURNITURE. Eames chairs, Jacobson, Aalto... I spent three hours in this tiny museum, but it was so worth it. The National Gallery was beautiful with artwork spanning from 1700 Danish and Nordic art to Modern day art. These beautiful pieces were displayed in an historic building with bridges connecting the new addition - a very modern, glass building addition. Such a cool way to display history. After the Gallery, I spent a few minutes sitting in a lawn chair in the fountain in front of the museum as a Dane walked his giant dog around the fountain. Great Saturday.
