MUDE ist das Designmuseum der Stadt Lissabon. Es befindet sich im ehemaligen Hauptsitz des Banco Nacional Ultramarino in der Rua Augusta und wurde am 25.

Die Dauerausstellung „What are things for?“ zeichnet die Geschichte des Designs von 1900 bis 2020 nach und stellt portugiesisches Design neben internationalen Ikonen der Mode und Produktgestaltung in seinen Kontext.
