Loja Novo Desenho

Rio de Janeiro


Inside the Museu de Arte do Rio, this 'Store of New Design' sells fanciful objects that are pure eye candy. Some of Rio's best modern designs are here (created by some of the country's best industrial designers). And you'll find whimsical two-dimensional vases, surreal clock faces and other clever works. There's another location inside the Museu de Arte Moderna.
