Dieter Rams “Less And More” Exhibition @ Design Museum

One of my favorite museum, Design Museum in London is having a retrospective exhibition of Dieter Rams until March 14th 2010. He is a well-known former head of design at the German electronics brand Braun for 40 years.

The exhibition presents a collection of his amazing works including both product designs for Braun and furniture design for Vitsoe from 1955 til 1995.

The picture above is the shelving system that Rams designed in 1960 called: 606 Universal Shelving System. You can also see photos of the SK 6 phonograph and radio for Braun here.
