shekou museum of design victoria and albert shenzhenWe recently told you about plans to open China’s first design museum in Shekou, Shenzhen, but we didn’t know what it would look like—until now.

The Victoria and Albert Museum signed a deal with the property arm of the China Merchants Group on June 17 to jointly collaborate upon the new museum.

As part of the deal, the V & A will have a dedicated gallery to show major V & A exhibitions as well as their own curated displays.

These designs are by Japanese architect Fumihiko Maki and they look what we’d expect a design museum to look like.

Here are some photographs from bdonline to hold you over until the museum is scheduled to open in 2016.
