10 Best Museums in Melbourne | Condé Nast Traveler

"Tucked into the industrial backstreets of one of Melbourne’s northern suburbs, the Islamic Museum of Australia aims to promote cultural diversity. Desypher Architects transformed a former bottling factory into a contemporary charmer where even the administrative offices are a thing of beauty. The reception, staffed by the most personable folks in the city, is linked to the galleries by two bridges. Dark hallways lead into bright spaces, an excellent metaphor for what the museum and its founders are trying to achieve." - Carrie Hutchinson
