Art, Architecture & Miami Style

Contemporary exhibitions, public art, fashion houses and distinctive dining in a design-focused corner of Miami.

Miami Design District

A Neighborhood Shaped by Design

In the Miami Design District, creative work extends beyond the gallery walls. Sculptures, architectural installations and unexpected façades share the streets with fashion boutiques and restaurants. Move between an exhibition at ICA Miami, the public art along Paseo Ponti and a meal at Michael’s Genuine or COTE. Quadro sits on the district’s Biscayne Boulevard edge, rather than inside its shopping core.
