by Ivica Mamedy
The global fair for collectible design, Design Miami/ announced last June their first edition in Paris. As the sister fair to Art Basel, the inaugural Design Miami/ Paris will coincide with Paris+ by Art Basel from 18 to 22 October 2023, joining the flagship fairs in Basel, Switzerland, and Miami Beach, Florida. Marking its debut in the Paris design scene, Design Miami/ will forecast the best of contemporary art and design at L’Hôtel de Maisons, located in Saint-Germain-des-Près, a strategic cultural hub that is to many of the world’s leading collectible design galleries. The 18th-century mansion welcoming the fair stands as an iconic landmark deeply rooted in Parisian history, previously home to Karl Lagerfeld and several generations of the Pozzo di Borgo family.

As a capital of collectible design, it is home to many celebrated galleries, partners, and brands who have been integral to the scholarship and evolution of this market. We are committed to the city’s vibrant and multifaceted creative landscape, and hope that the new Paris fair will continue Design Miami’s ongoing mission to bring together our influential community of designers and gallerists, curators, and collectors, in celebration of design culture.”
