Limited edition ‘Feltri’, by Gaetano Pesce for Cassina, with vintage quilts selected by Raf Simons, for Calvin Klein
Design Miami/ Basel returned to the Herzog & de Meuron-designed fairgrounds for its 13th edition, presenting its traditional mix of new creative projects, iconic designs from the past and conceptual interpretations of the genre. With 43 international galleries presenting work from names of modern and contemporary design, as well as ten special Curio presentations and more large-scale installations, this edition once again offered a magnificent celebration of culture and commerce. Here are our highlights.
(Con)temporary Home by ETEL
This year’s Collectors Lounge is created by Brazilian brand ETEL and designed by Italian architecture firm Superluna. The space is designed to feel like a domestic environment, encased in a steel frame which gently separates the lounge area from the bustling fair. Inside, contemporary and historical Brazilian design pieces are arranged in conversation with photographs by Ruy Teixeira, which complete the space. Among the iconic furniture offering guests a place to relax and enjoy a glass of champagne is a notable selection of pieces by Jorge Zalszupin, a special tribute to the Brazilian master’s 96th birthday.
