V&A鄧迪博物館在十週年慶典前夕，正積極籌備一場驚豔的改造。

V&A Dundee, a striking museum located in Scotland, has announced ambitious plans for a major revamp ahead of its 10th anniversary in 2028. Since opening its doors in September 2018, the museum has become a landmark in Dundee, attracting more than 2. 5 million visitors. The building itself is an architectural marvel, designed by Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, and features bold concrete shapes and a reflective pool at its entrance. Now, the museum is preparing for a multi-million pound transformation, aiming to enhance its open spaces and expand its Scottish Design Galleries.

The museum's leadership has revealed that they will launch a fundraising campaign to support these changes. The UK government has already pledged £2. 6 million to help remodel and extend the Scottish Design Galleries, which are a central part of the museum. These galleries were originally the only free-to-enter section, but the museum has since added smaller free exhibitions on other floors, such as the popular Dundee Tapestry. Feedback from visitors has played a key role in shaping the museum's plans. Many guests have expressed a desire for more exhibits and a larger space dedicated to Scottish design, both historical and contemporary.

Some critics have previously commented that the museum lacked enough content and that the Scottish Design Galleries were too small. The museum has taken this feedback seriously and is committed to making improvements. The new plans include expanding the galleries to showcase more objects and stories from Scotland and Dundee. The museum will also consult with community groups and schools to ensure the changes reflect what people want to see. The goal is to celebrate Scotland's rich design history, highlight current achievements, and look forward to the future of design.

Financially, V&A Dundee is in a strong position. Last year, it reported an income of over £9 million and spent about £8. 5 million. It also receives £3. 8 million annually from the Scottish government. The museum's chairman, Tim Allan, hopes that additional fundraising from private donors will match the government's contribution, allowing for a complete transformation of the visitor experience. By 2028, V&A Dundee aims to be an even more dynamic and engaging destination, showcasing the best of Scottish and international design for all to enjoy.
