Located in Bethnal Green, the Young V&A stands as a spectacular, award-winning museum space designed entirely to foster open-ended childhood imagination and design logic. Bypassing basic digital screen rooms, this historic iron-framed structure offers interactive, hands-on architectural installations where children can build physical models.

• The interesting feature for young visitors is the dedicated design laboratory, where kids collaborate with real-world materials to solve complex spatial structural problems, discovering the mechanics of forces and geometry through play. It is a world-class example of child-led learning that naturally develops spatial reasoning and problem-solving skills. A Tuesday morning visit allows creative families to explore the entire interactive laboratory in total peace.
