Design Miami/ 2021

17th edition of Design Miami/ is curated by incoming Curatorial Director, Wava Carpenter.

Jennifer Roberts, CEO of Design Miami/, says: “The 17th edition of Design Miami/ brings a myriad of reasons for celebration – from returning to our home in Pride Park to our Human Kind theme, which will look at how design can play a role in shaping the world for the better. As we continue to see the collectible design market grow, in both physical and digital spaces, we’re pleased to also welcome many new members to the Design Miami/ family – galleries, curios, and partners – all of which are bringing thoughtful contributions to the fair”.

This year’s programming, the first curated by incoming Curatorial Director, Wava Carpenter, will explore the theme of Human Kind, shining a spotlight on design-led visions for a more equitable and interconnected future. Those operating at the cutting-edge of design thinking will bring together works, ideas, and presentations to spark conversations around the current state of the world and where we need to go. The galleries and partners have planned thoughtful and diverse responses to this timely theme. Human Kind spotlights design-led visions for a more equitable and interconnected future, one that is inclusive of BIPOC and LGBTQ communities, women, developing nations, displaced populations, disabled bodies, and life forms great and small.
