We’re a new kind of museum focused on educating the world about design.

We’re a multi-city museum based in Boston, MA; Portland, OR; and San Francisco, CA. without our own gallery space.

Design is everywhere, so are we! We turn the museum inside out, turning entire cities into museums. Our exhibitions and events are in places people already go: retail space, public space—even outside.

Design shapes our world. It intersects with everything and everyone. We produce educational programming about every type of design. Learn how the design process can be used to make a better world.

Absolutely not! Design is for everyone! We offer the most accessible, inclusive way to engage with design and designers. Our exhibitions and events are open to all.
