Though Basel boasts a big list of amazing museums, I was most excited to head to the Vitra Design Museum (shown here) and Vitra campus located in Weil-am-Rhein, Germany, a 25-minute bus ride from Basel's city center. When I was there, the museum was showing a fantastic exhibit about modern design photographers Aldo and Marirosa Ballo titled Zoom. Frank Gehry's museum building is one of the earlier buildings on the Vitra campus, completed in 1989.
