The inaugural Design Miami/ Market brings a new kind of product to the fair, with a curated selection
of design-driven retail offering custom and limited-edition objects, ornaments, accessories and specialty gourmet items.
Each year Design Miami/ will commission an emerging talent to design the Market. This first edition is imagined and produced by local designer Emmett Moore and acts as a playful reminder of Miami’s tropical environment, drawing heavily on South Beach for inspiration. The Market brings the beach to Design Miami/ with kiosks made of whitewashed wood and canopies reminiscent of beach loungers with their blue vinyl strapping.
In addition to the Design Miami/ J.Crew capsule collection, the Market features HAPPY VIEW, a lenticular photograph with removable sunglasses by Vik Muniz and Selima Optique from LIZWORKS, founded by Liz Swig; specialty gourmet items from Dean & DeLuca; and a carefully curated selection of art, design and culture books from Design Miami/ veteran D.A.P. ARTBOOK.
Design Miami/ is the global forum for design. Each fair brings together the most influential collectors, gallerists, designers, curators and critics from around the world in celebration of design culture and commerce. Occurring alongside the Art Basel fairs in Miami, USA each December and Basel, Switzerland each June, Design Miami/ has become the premier venue for collecting, exhibiting, discussing and creating collectible design.
