Sir Terence Conran donates £7.5 million to the Design Museum

Designer Sir Terence Conran, who I had the honour to meet as a student, has donated £7.5 million to the Design Museum, to create 'the world's leading museum of contemporary design and architecture in London'.

The museum will relocate from its Thames site to the Commonwealth Institute Building in 2014. The Sir Gilbert Scott Telephone Box has been added to the Design Classics Collection. Conran's contribution to the Design Museum totals £50 Million.
His ambition is to have the greatest design museum in the world. Bravo.
