Welcome to the 4th edition of Design Miami Paris

Best Gallery Presentation

Salon 94 Design

The Best Gallery Presentation was awarded to Salon 94 (New York), whose selection of modern and contemporary design explored the natural world through the work of Alberto and Diego Giacometti, Peter Schlesinger, Rick Owens, Urs Fischer, and F. Taylor Colantonio, bringing together sculptural forms and animal subjects that reflect the beauty, instinct, and complexity of nature.

Best Design At Large Presentation

maison parisienne

Paris-based gallery Maison Parisienne (Paris) takes the title of Best Design at Large Presentation with Arabesque, a monumental site-specific installation by designer and master cabinetmaker Pierre Renart. Installed in the gardens of the Hôtel de Maisons, this sculptural outdoor bench is crafted entirely from moabi, a precious wood with a bronze-like hue well suited to the open air. The work enters into dialogue with the history and architecture of one of Paris’s most remarkable former private residences, offering an exceptional backdrop for the Paris edition.

Best Historic Work

GRAF, KAPLAN & ZEMAITIS

The Best Historic Work was awarded to a Frank Lloyd Wright chair at Graf, Kaplan & Zemaitis, part of Important Design from 1880 to 1970, a group exhibition of three private dealers presenting a rare selection of 20th-century decorative arts masterworks.

Maria Wettergren

Best Contemporary Work

The Best Contemporary Work was awarded to Membrane Chair (2026) by Mathias Bengtsson at Galerie Maria Wettergren (Paris). Bengtsson’s pioneering approach combines advanced technology with organic aesthetics to create a truly sculptural presence.
