Lonely Planet review for Vitra Design Museum
Pop across the German border to the Vitra Design Museum. Not only is the main museum building by the Guggenheim’s creator, Frank Gehry, the surrounding factory complex of famous furniture manufacturer Vitra comprises buildings by other cutting-edge architects, such as Tadao Ando, Zaha Hadid and Álvaro Siza. Exhibitions cover all aspects of interior design. Catch bus 55 from Claraplatz in Kleinbasel (30 minutes) to the Vitra stop. Border checks are theoretically possible, so take your passport.
