The Walker Guest House, a 1953 architectural pavilion designed by Paul Rudolph, has been transported from Florida and reassembled inside the Pacific Design Center in West Hollywood. It is being offered for sale for $2 million as part of the Basic.Space L.A. high-design shopping event, complete with original furnishings and architectural drawings.
Design Miami has announced plans to launch a new edition in Dubai in early 2027, in partnership with the Dubai-based cultural enterprise Alserkal. The fair, currently celebrating its 20th anniversary in Miami Beach, also runs an annual edition in Paris, while its Basel show was suspended earlier this year. The inaugural Design Miami Dubai will be led by Vilma Jurkute, executive director of Alserkal, Jennifer Roberts, CEO of Design Miami, and Jesse Lee, chairman of Design Miami and founder of Basic.Space, which acquired the fair in 2023. Beyond the annual event, the collaboration will establish a year-round programme of design talks and educational initiatives.
