This was the entrance to get into the exhibition on one of the floors.
This was in the lobby of the MoMA when you first walked in.
So after our walk around the exhibit we ventured into the MoMA Shop. So inspirational and so exciting to look at everything. These are the things on my wishlist (wink, wink!) One thing I do have to say, is not that I am getting married anytime soon but I totally wish you could register at Art Museums! Way more fun and interesting than Bed, Bath, & Beyond. (A few friends are getting married, so that is why I thought about it.)
Wishlist!:
Small Perpetual Calendar
Gideon Dagan, 2008
Gideon Dagan's original Perpetual Calendar was designed for MoMA in 1998. This new desktop version commemorates the 10th anniversary of his original design. To use, simply insert the stand to place the calendar on a desk and move the magnetic balls manually to mark the date and month. Made of injection-molded plastic and magnets.
I used to do this with grid paper and i would measure out everything so it fit when planning out my bedroom. I would highlight the edges so I could see them. They took my idea, but it is kinda way easier. (plus I didnt account for a rug or any of that)

Pig Cooking Lid, 2001
Made of soft silicone with a pig face in the center, this multipurpose lid can be placed directly over ingredients in a pot to help them cook evenly, releasing steam through the pig's snout. It can also be used to cover food in the microwave, and as a grip to open lids. Dishwasher and microwave safe.

Outline Vase
Yuko Tokuda, 2006
A novel interpretation of the classic vase, this porcelain "outline" of the familiar shape creates an interesting floral display and gives the admirer a framed, new perspective. Hand-wash only.
Index Chopping Boards
Damian Evans, 2007
These four color-coded polypropylene chopping boards are designed to avoid cross-contamination of various food types: red/raw meat, white/cooked foods, blue/fish, green/vegetables. The boards are stored in an ABS plastic horizontal filing unit with a non-slip rubber bottom. Boards are dishwasher safe.
I love this! And at the museum it came in mint & red, I believe.
Vin Eau Carafe
Scott Henderson, 2005
With two drinking cups that store conveniently in its open top, the "Vin Eau" Carafe is perfect for wine or water. The carafe features flowing lines and a cleverly integrated handle. Dishwasher safe. Made of porcelain.
I think this is an awesome concept!
Less Lamp
Jordi Canudas, 2006
An innovative design concept, the Less Lamp is a sealed lamp shade made of plaster. In order to use, the lamp must be "broken" to release the light within. The lamp's included pickaxe is used to crack the lamp's shell, allowing the user to decide on the appearance and position of the lamp's holes and the direction of its light emission. Uses one standard incandescent light bulb (not included).
River Stones Bowl
Riccardo Marzi, 2006
A complement to the popular stone platter, this generously sized, food-safe serving bowl features hand-picked natural river stones suspended in clear resin, replicating their native underwater appearance. Hand-wash only; not for microwave.
Conceal Bookshelf
Miron Lior/Umbra Design Group, 2007
This wall mounted shelf designed by a Pratt Institute student becomes invisible behind a stack of books. Accommodates up to 15 lbs. Books can be stacked up to 16". Mounting hardware included.
