26 Oct Nike exhibition at Vitra Design Museum/Forbes.com

Vitra Design Museum took a page out of Nike’s playbook and ‘Just did it.’ Over the weekend/last weekend, they debuted “Nike: Form Follows Motion,” the first-ever comprehensive museum exhibition dedicated to the design history of a company with one of the most recognizable logos in the world.  On display: over 300 artifacts from Nike’s vast archives, ranging from shoes (prototypes of now-iconic styles like the Waffle trainer, the Air Force 1, and Shox) to apparel, drawings, historical photographs, and examples from their award-winning, hard-hitting ad campaigns. Many are being shown publicly for the first time. And while 300 might sound like a large number, consider this: there are over 200,000 items in the Department of Nike Archives (aka “DNA”).  Read all about it here.
