COLLECTIONS AND RESEARCH
DOMINION MODERN acquires and catalogues collections of individual architects, designers and companies for future generations.
DOMINION MODERN maintains a large collection of Canadian 20th Century artifacts – from furniture and industrial design to photographs, drawings, and ephemera.
-Artifact Collection: furniture, objects, and industrial design
-Ephemera Collection: includes graphic design, advertising, packaging
-Industrial Collection: Canadian company histories
-Bibliographic Collection: Books and periodicals on architecture, design, industrial design, company and Canadian history.
-Photographic Collection: 50,000+ photographs, transparencies, negatives, prints and original prints.
Currently, there is an urgent need for the DOMINION MODERN collection of industrial design objects, photographs, drawings, sketches to be cared for. The objects need to be catalogued, indexed and stored safely. You can help us by making a donation toward this very important work.
