An ode to the polyethnic culture of Miami, this year’s neighbourhood commission in the Miami Design District will be created by Miami-based architect Germane Barnes. The interactive piece will see swinging capsules activated by the public – all in vibrant colours. ‘Rock | Roll’ will be a gathering area for talks which have been curated with University of Miami’s Center for Global Black Studies and the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami.

Created by the British artist Barnaby Barford, the creature is made up of small, individual ceramic pieces wired together onto a metal frame.

London-based Carpenters Workshop Gallery’s stand features a concrete chair with a large, pink metal tree growing from the base of the seat, complete with lights installed within the tree’s geometric branches. The imposing manmade rendering of a natural form was created by the designer Nacho Carbonell, who in 2009 was named a Designer of the Future at Design Miami Basel in Switzerland. During Miami Art Week 2023, Japanese skincare trailblazer Shiseido introduces Future Reflections, its inaugural generative art collection.
It’s not the warmer weather that beckons—although the pallid New York set welcomes the extra dose of vitamin D—rather, it’s Design Miami, America’s most preeminent design exhibitions, that requires the trip. The event, which takes place alongside Art Basel, is not only an annual survey of work by the field’s leading minds; it’s a glimpse into the countless possible aesthetic futures that might await us. From jaw-dropping technological feats to high-concept furniture and intimate domestic objects, this year’s offering welcomes the usual suspects—name brand studios and galleries—while inducting a new vanguard of creators and crossover concepts into the fold. Top galleries exhibit furniture, lighting and art objects across the event while a series of cultural programmes including lectures, panel discussions and networking sessions explore architecture, music, film and design. For Art Basel Miami Beach 2023, The Standard has collaborated with renowned Swedish designer Gustaf Westman for a pop-up at Cafe Standard, located at The Standard Spa, Miami Beach.
Collaborating with artists Hannah Yan, Jen Stark, Kaoru Tanaka, and Robert Hodgin, the project draws inspiration from Shiseido’s fusion of art, science, and key elements in the Future Solution LX line. The collection, emphasizing refinement and modernity, showcases the brand’s commitment to beauty industry innovation. Andrés Reisinger’s “Take Over” was another architectural intervention that felt as high impact offline as it looked online. Adapted from Reisinger’s series of digital renderings that depict buildings wrapped in pink curtains, the piece’s construction was simple and yet the outcome created an instant Design District landmark — which is no easy feat in a neighbourhood filled with designer flagships.
Much like these cherished personal talismans, each piece in this lighting ensemble possesses its own distinct character and energy, connected by delicate chains that symbolize our interwoven human experiences. Borne of reverence for Ottoman calligraphy and the unmatched craftsmanship that still exists in Istanbul, Dream in Calligraphy celebrates the harmony of tradition, creativity, and light that is Kemahlioglu’s signature. The molded brass structure of the chandelier has been gracefully formed it into a three-dimensional representation reminiscent of calligraphy's graceful flow and movement. When it comes to group showings, Sarah Myerscough Gallery's exhibition "Material Shores" is one of the most directional of the season, which is likely the reason that the London outfit tied with New York’s Magen H Gallery for the coveted award of Best Gallery Presentation.

Cj Hendry will present HOOPS Tree, a deep ocean blue basketball tree that will rise twenty feet and will be equipped with thirty-four hoops like a chandelier. Set against the backdrop of the vibrant Wynwood arts district and the Biscayne Bay, HOOPS Tree at once evokes the tropical, easygoing culture of the coastal city known for its nightlife and athletic scene. The installation is Cj’s latest foray into large scale exhibitions with explorations in engineering and creativity delivered with a familiar flair of light-heartedness and fun that has become synonymous with the artist’s work. HOOPS Tree will be open to the public on December 6th at Margaret Pace Park, 1745 N Bayshore Dr., Miami.
