The Miami Design District is a thriving neighborhood dedicated to fashion, design, culture and creativity of all kinds. 

For more than twenty years, Craig Robins has been nurturing the development of this unique neighborhood. Today, the principal owner of the neighborhood is Miami Design District Associates, a partnership between Robins’ company Dacra and L Catterton, a global real estate development and investment fund, specializing in creating luxury shopping destinations, and Brookfield Properties.

The partnership is fueling the continued transformation of the neighborhood. Paseo Ponti—the main pedestrian thoroughfare—extends from the art-filled Palm Court Plaza on 39th Street past the flagship locations of Cartier, Dior, Hermès and Louis Vuitton to the entrance of Paradise Plaza on 41st Street home to Chanel, Gucci, and Balenciaga. Buckminster Fuller’s Fly’s Eye dome is the centerpiece of Palm Court which also houses watch and fine-jewelry retailers including IWC Schaffhausen, Van Cleef & Arpels and Vacheron Constantin. On the northern end, Paradise Plaza features the restaurants ZZ’s Club by Major Food Group and L’Atelier and Le Jardiner by Joel Robuchon. Over 200 stores and showrooms, 30 restaurants and bars call the Miami Design District home including luxury and contemporary brands: Alexander McQueen, Bulgari, Celine, Christian Louboutin, Chrome Hearts, Dolce & Gabbana Fendi, Givenchy, Moncler, Off-White, Prada, Rolex, Saint Laurent, Tiffany & Co., Tom Ford, Valentino and Versace.

The Institute of Contemporary Art Miami (ICA) is part of the cultural offerings in the neighborhood which also includes a significant roster of public art, design installations and architecture by John Baldessari, Zaha Hadid, Sou Fujimoto, Marc Newson, Konstantin Grcic, Xavier Veilhan, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, and Urs Fischer among other notable creatives.
