Fodor's Review:

You could be forgiven for walking by this museum, thinking that it's a private office or boutique. No one expects a front garden -- a garden! -- in this pack-in-every-square-foot neighborhood. It's a serene welcome to this stark three-room space, which opened in 2004. Quarterly exhibits focus on modern design of all sorts, from fanciful furniture to designer toys to wine labels. Whether you should visit depends entirely on the exhibit: if the theme grabs you, it's well worth coming by.

  • Cost: $3 donation
  • Open: Tues., Wed., Fri., and Sat. 10-5, Thurs. 10-7, Sun. noon-5
