Design Miami/

"Since bringing HSBC Private Bank and Design Miami/ together in 2006, I have been proud to see it continue to grow and evolve into an event of unsurpassed excellence. 

"It gives me great pleasure to take HSBC Private Bank into the next stage in our relationship with Design Miami/ as we renew our partnership this year. 

"HSBC Private Bank’s expanding global commitment to design is borne of our dedication to finding surprising new ways of doing things differently. The way innovative designers look at the world is reflected in our approach to business.

"Modern and contemporary design is not merely a sign of human creativity; it embodies a way of life; of always seeking to make the ordinary into the extraordinary. 

"Our clients share our passion for design and welcome the opportunity to be a part of this innovative, creative and dynamic world. 

"As the partner of Design Miami/ we look forward to bringing you an event where you will experience the totality of design experience from idea to realisation and appreciation to investment."

Peter Braunwalder
CEO, HSBC Private Bank (Suisse) SA

Design Miami/Basel took place in Basel, Switzerland from 3 to 5 June 2008. Design Miami/ will take place in December 2008.

Designers, gallerists and collectors from around the world will converge on the famous Markthalle to showcase and experience the best of the international design world including dynamic exhibitions, events and talks.


Throughout its gallery selection process, Design Miami/ upholds strict criteria; in doing so it presents a unique opportunity in the world of design. There is no other event where you can enjoy design of the quality and sophistication that is displayed at the bi-annual Design Miami/ events.


“…contemporary design is increasingly where the cutting edge collecting action is.”
William Cash, Spears WMS magazine, Spring 2008


“Design evokes human emotions, such as surprise and joy; it stirs the human heart and transcends language, ethnicity and national borders.”
Tokujin Yoshioka, Designer of the Year, Design Miami/ 2007
