The fair takes place from 20 to 25 October 2026 at the Hôtel de Maisons, in Paris’s 7th arrondissement. Eleven days before the preview, its organisers detail the partners’ programme, from state manufactures to brand projects.

For its fourth Paris edition, Design Miami settles once again at the Hôtel de Maisons, 51 rue de l’Université.

Giobagnara makes its first appearance there with Curated Forms, a series of limited-edition objects designed with designer Martino Gamper and artist Gary Hume, curated by Nick Vinson. The announced process is leather marquetry, a technique traditionally reserved for small leather goods, applied here to furniture, mirrors and objects. The pieces are produced in editions of twelve, signed and numbered.

The Manufactures nationales de Sèvres and the Mobilier national, partners for the fourth time, present a new piece by Kunaal Kyhaan Seolekar: an Indian ewer in Sèvres porcelain adorned with embroidery made with the Shanagar workshop. It sits alongside pieces from the Mobilier national’s collections, including an eighteenth-century marquetry pedestal by Adrien Delorme and a nineteenth-century console in mahogany and gilt bronze, as well as works by Andrea Branzi, Michele De Lucchi, Philippe Nigro, Christian Renonciat, Borek Sipek and Ettore Sottsass.

Jordan Roth unveils To Think of the Tranquil Life of Things, his first foray into performative sculpture and functional design, at 72 rue de l’Université from 20 to 25 October. On leaving the house where he lived for fifteen years, he photographed himself seated on the furniture that was about to leave, dressed in the outfits of the people he has been; these photographic collages are printed on textiles that drape the objects. The scenography is by Charlap Hyman & Herrero.

Tolix, which is approaching its centenary, inaugurates its new Paris showroom during Paris Design Week 2026 and shows the UD TV console, the first creation to come from its collaboration with ENSAAMA. Apple and Design Miami renew the Designers of Tomorrow initiative for a second year, on the theme “Design for Presence”, under the direction of Rodman Primack: four designers have been selected by a jury, but their names do not appear in the information available.

The list of partners mixes state manufactures, a furniture maker, groups such as Apple and Range Rover, and a hotel and residential project, Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami. The information available does not specify the nature of the agreements between the fair and these partners: one therefore cannot distinguish a chosen programme from a sponsorship. The presentations described with the most precision are those where the process is named: leather marquetry at Giobagnara, embroidery on porcelain at Sèvres, printed textiles at Jordan Roth.
