a digital design-centric editorial publication. Design Miami/ was founded in 2005 by entrepreneur, real estate developer, and art and design collector Craig Robins. In 2000, Robins began working to transform the previously-abandoned Miami Design District into a center for innovative design, architecture, fashion, food and art. By 2005 the renewal of the Miami Design District inspired the creation of the Design Miami/ company and annual fair, shortly followed by Design Miami/ Basel, an annual design fair in Basel, Switzerland managed by Design Miami/. In 2015 Jen Roberts joined Design Miami/ as CEO and has since broadened the company’s initiatives to include an expanded digital presence, a new event concept called Podium aimed at international touring capabilities, and the inaugural Design Miami/ Paris fair set to take place October 2023.
