The Swiss Museum of Design and Visual Communication’s second location is in the trendy Zurich West neighborhood. Temporary exhibitions bridge the gap to the university, showcase experimental projects, and take a stand on current debates in design. The museum’s collection – comprising over 580 000 objects related to design, graphic design, decorative arts, and posters – is also housed here. Regular guided tours of the exhibition storage area and archives offer visitors fascinating insights into the extensive collection.
A further exhibition and educational activities can be found in the main building on Ausstellungsstrasse
