But their role is not simply a matter of sales-it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The differen

27、ce between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits.
