To coincide with the exhibition Designing Childhood. A History of Design for Children, the Design Museum Brussels and Maison CFC Éditions present the book Designing Childhood. Le mobilier pour enfant – Kindermeubilair – Children’s furniture , edited by Marie-Ange Brayer and Arnaud Bozzini.

Designed to be accessible and engaging, the book features a selection of 32 objects, each presented in full-page images in chronological order of creation.

Two trilingual texts (FR/NL/EN) complete this project. The book captures the spirit of the exhibition in a condensed form and highlights the diversity of approaches taken by both leading figures in design and designers less well-known to the general public, yet whose contributions deserve to be showcased. It is intended to serve as a memento of the exhibition, a tool for discovery and a testament to design that is mindful of children.
