The museum idea

A gallery can be small and still feel expansive.

Crusado looks at toy design as a form of making: a way to translate architecture, costume, symbols, and stories into objects that fit in the hand.

About Crusado

“The pleasure is in the close look: a painted shield, a timber gate, a worn edge on a wooden sword.”
