A+D Museum, Art museum in Los Angeles Arts District, California.
The A+D Museum is an art museum in Los Angeles's Arts District housed within a converted warehouse building. Its exhibitions explore how architecture and design shape and reflect contemporary life and society.
The museum was founded in 2001 and initially received free space within the historic Bradbury Building. This early support helped the young institution establish itself within the city's design community.
The museum presents exhibitions that treat architecture and design as languages people use and encounter every day. Visitors can observe how spaces and objects shape daily life and why thoughtful choices in design matter to everyone.
The visit is self-guided and the building features multiple levels with ramps and elevators providing access to different exhibition areas. The museum offers printed and digital materials that complement the exhibitions on display.
The museum maintains a special collection of children's books and educational materials designed to introduce young people to architecture in simple and playful ways. This makes it a surprising place where children learn to think like designers.
