Extension summary

With over 4.5 million objects in its permanent collection, the V&A is the world’s largest museum of decorative arts and design. But with such a huge archive to explore, how do you discover the unknown?

Cole connects to the V&A Museum’s database, and displays an object at random from the collection each time you open a new tab.

In the latest version, you can customise your search terms, view a recent history of the items that have come back, and lots more.

Made with support and kind permission from the Victoria and Albert Museum.
