Daily Tips: Modern Classics at Design Miami

As the holiday season steadily approaches, Design Miami delights modern design enthusiasts with a selection of collectible pieces, just in time for some well-deserved Christmas shopping. Among a list of international galleries showcasing unbearably desirable pieces, our eyes fell on the fair’s new section: Curio. Curio is Design Miami’s new exhibition platform which invites designers, curators, innovators and gallerists to present ‘total environments’ – special cabinets of curiosity that offer an immersive experience of design practice. Among this year’s four exhibited projects, Joe Sheftel Gallery and Koenig&Clinton present a selection of rare and fairly well-known work by Ettore Sottsass and the Memphis group. Shifting radical to established, Sottsass’ designs should, by now, be on everyone’s gift lists.
