Design Museum of Portland

I came across the Design Museum by accident, tried to figure out what it was (There's a museum here? Not exactly.), and went back to photograph it after the exhibit had technically ended.

Design is a really broad and interesting topic. I read once that it is essentially problem-solving, and that can be overly simplistic, but does give an idea of design's heart. So design could bring in anything and everything.

In its own way, a nomadic museum could be solving a design problem of accessibility. The lack of permanent space, just putting things out there where anyone can stumble upon them and no admission needs to be paid, that at least sounds very Portland, at least as we hope to be. (Though also Boston and San Francisco.)

They can go interesting place with this. Technically, they can go anywhere.
