Unplggd: Stylish Home Office Tech Gifts
Admit it, visiting the museum is always a little better when you know they’ve got an ace gift shop waiting at the end of your day of cultural enrichment. It’s okay, museums often do an excellent job of curating hard to source items related to the history of art and design. Cultural institutions like MOMA male for a surprisingly great source for tech related gifts throughout the year, oftentimes offering import items you might have seen here or at other design blogs, but can’t be found at regular retailers. Here are 12 tech items we pulled from the catalogs of four of our fav modern museums …
