Design the Future is a show inspired by Buckminster Fuller, the designer of the museum’s famous dome, and considered one of the fathers of contemporary environmental thought. His assertion “The best way to predict the future is to design it” still carries meaning today, and it is one of his famous quotes that inspired the title of the show.
