Designmuseum Danmark set to reopen in June
/Recent newsletters from Designmuseum Danmark have said that they will reopen in June.
With the onset of the pandemic, as all public buildings were closed, the decision was made to bring forward necessary repairs to the museum building to do in one single campaign what would, otherwise, have been done in stages with different parts of the building shutting for months or years before the workmen and the disruption moved on to another part.
As the pandemic stretched on and on, biting the bullet - going for complete closure and all the building work and repairs and the disruption all done with in one go - has proved to be absolutely the right decision.
Since the closure, display cabinets - added to the forecourt by Cobe in 2018 - have been used to show how the work on repairing stonework or relaying the marble floors of the galleries and so on has progressed.
The front of the museum is now swamped by more scaffolding so it looks as if there is still some major work that has to be finished before the front door is thrown open.
