I visited the Cooper Hewit National Design Museum to visit to check out the Design USA: Contemporary Innovation exhibit. Some incredible advances have been made in the last ten years in craft, architecture, technology and fashion that we often take for granted. (e.g.: of about 100 things on display, four of them were office chairs??) The best part was striking up a convo with the security guard who was a wealth of interesting info. He let us know that before it was the National Design Museum, the builing used to be Columbia University, and before that it was Andrew Carnegie’s home. The atrium we stood in while chatting? Designed by the same architect who did the BK Bridge.
Highly recommed the exhibit!
