DESIGN MIAMI. Seoul

DESIGN MIAMI. is an annual international design fair regarded as a leading platform for collectors, galleries, designers, and curators from around the world. The name not only references its origins in Miami but also underscores the event’s global focus and extensive network, which connects the international design community. In Seoul, DESIGN MIAMI. is held at the Yigansumun Exhibition Hall in the heart of the city, adjacent to the architecturally renowned Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) – a venue distinguished by its historical significance and excellent accessibility.

Organized by Design Miami, the Seoul edition brings together leading figures from the worlds of design, art, and luxury. The fair centers on furniture design, museum-quality collectibles, innovative lighting, and objets d’art from the 20th and 21st centuries, showcased by internationally acclaimed galleries. Visitors can also look forward to a diverse program featuring curated gallery presentations, experimental Curio cabinets, large-scale installations, cross-brand special projects, as well as inspiring talks and awards honoring outstanding design achievements.

DESIGN MIAMI. captures the cultural pulse of Seoul and actively supports the local design community through regional and site-specific formats such as “Illuminated – A Spotlight on Korean Design.” In this way, the creative diversity of the country is brought to an international stage. The fair addresses current topics such as sustainability and material innovation with presentations that highlight responsibly sourced materials, upcycling, and circular concepts. Digital collectibles and Web 3.0 content offer additional perspectives on the future of design.

Exhibitors represent the fields of interior architecture, industrial design, furniture, and luxury goods. The main audience includes industry professionals, collectors, investors, and creatives from the worlds of art, architecture, and fashion, all seeking inspiration, networking, and business opportunities. DESIGN MIAMI. is part of an exclusive network with additional editions in Miami, Paris, Los Angeles, and Basel, standing for international dialogue and the presentation of outstanding design achievements.

The Yigansumun Exhibition Hall and the neighboring Dongdaemun Design Plaza provide an inspiring architectural setting and, thanks to their central location, offer all visitors easy access to Seoul’s vibrant design scene and the city’s rich cultural landscape. As such, DESIGN MIAMI. stands out as a highlight on the international fair calendar.
