Since 2015, the museum's collection, the Plastic Design Collection, circumscribes the landscape of plastics in design from the 1950s to the present day.
Alongside this collection, the museum opened belgisch design belge, a permanent exhibition space dedicated to Belgian design and its history.
Enriched by a programme of temporary exhibitions, the Design Museum Brussels also explores other fields of design creation and its impact on society and our daily lives.
Through exhibitions, guided tours, workshops, conferences and events, the museum aims to ensure that design is intelligible to one and all.

Launched in June 2022, the Pastis collection designed for Danish publisher HAY marks a turning point in Julien Renault's career. The project began in February 2020 at the Stockholm Fair, when Rolf Hay asked Julien Renault to reflect on a wooden chair that would be relevant for the next 50 years. Inspired by the atmosphere of brasseries and grand railway station cafés, Julien Renault imagined a comfortable chair with armrests paying homage to everything we longed for during the lockdown. His intention was to create a timeless, robust, and elegant armchair. The collection is an ode to the social, the human, and to sharing. Two years will have passed between the first drawing and the launch of the complete collection on the market. On the occasion of his nomination as designer of the year 2023, Julien Renault is bringing together all the drawings, models, and prototypes representing the major stages in the development of his collection. The installation "The story behind the Pastis collection" aims to show the work that went into each product to the general public.

Since its founding in 1908, Olivetti has made a name for itself through the development of legendary products such as its typewriters, but also through its close relationship with the world of art. Belgian artist Jean-Michel Folon worked for Olivetti on numerous occasions over a period of almost three decades, producing posters and advertising products, as well as a number of immensely creative books and cartoons. The Olivetti · Folon exhibition, in collaboration with the Museo Civico Pier Alessandro Garda, the Associazione Archivio Storico Olivetti and the Fondation Folon, presents the rich artistic collaboration between the Italian design company Olivetti and the artist Jean-Michel Folon.
