“We are excited to return to Basel with a special edition of the fair, honouring many of the galleries who we have collaborated with for years. We hope the fair will serve as a valuable meeting point for gallerists, collectors and design enthusiasts from around the world to share and discover works presented by the foremost experts in the field of historic and contemporary design.”

Jen Roberts, CEO of Design Miami/


This year’s fair offers an array of highlights, with works spanning rare, historical objects to one-of-a-kind, contemporary designs and collaborations. Through this unique selection of works, the fair will offer a rare presentation of the international evolution of the history of collectible design. The spectrum of old and new will also allow audiences to chart the influence of historic works on the contemporary designs we see today, prompting a re-thinking of tradition through the study of design experts.

One standout historic presentation will come from Galerie Patrick Seguin (Paris). Since it was founded in 1989, the gallery may be credited with bringing a number of key French design talents to the international spotlight, with a particular specialisation in the work of Jean Prouvé. Alongside works by Prouvé, the gallery will present an array of 20th century masterpieces, including pieces by Charlotte Perriand, Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Jean RoyeΜ€re.
