The building of the museum was planned and designed by Israeli architect and industrial designer Ron Arad in cooperation with Bruno Asa.

[1][2] The museum is in the eastern part of the new culture area of Holon that includes the Médiathèque (central library, theater, cinémathèque).

Nearby is the faculty of design in the Holon Institute of Technology.

In 2015, and again in 2017, the museum produced an exhibit of designs created for Alessi that were never realized.

These shows included the design work of Acconci Studio, Carlo and Giovanni Alessi, Andrea Branzi, Gary Chang, Scott Henderson, Hans Hollein, Toyo Ito, Marcel Wanders, and Zaha Hadid, among others.
