MODA prepares to re-launch

The Museum of Domestic Design & Architecture (MoDA) is preparing to re-launch in October 2011, with a new home and a new approach to sharing our collections: Online, On Tour and On Request.  For more information about the reasons for the move and our plans for the future see our MoDA re-launch page.

We're closing the doors to the museum at Cat Hill on 8th April.  We're sad to be leaving, but we're also excited about what the future holds.

This blog will chart the progress of MoDA's transformation into a new kind of museum.  MoDA staff will be sharing their thoughts and experiences of the move and giving you a sneak preview of what we'll be up to.

We'll also be taking the opportunity to show you some of the great things we have in our collections.  This week we've been inspired by the spring weather, so we thought we'd share this pretty wallpaper featuring apple blossom, dating from 1910:
