The <strong>Miami</strong> <strong>Design</strong> <strong>District</strong> has become the place to look, taste, explore and shop. Just<br />
a scant six years ago the 18-block district was 50 percent occupied. Today, with 100<br />
percent occupancy, the <strong>District</strong> is a vibrant community filled with a variety of restaurants,<br />
art galleries, design showrooms, retail shops and salons and spas. Here's a sample<br />
of who has recently moved in.<br />
Sauvage (114 NE 40th St.) The concept store, which means “wild” in French, proves that the<br />
time of global brands and logo domination in the world of fashion has passed. The idea to<br />
allow women to let their own taste prevail is the priority of Sauvage. The store showcases<br />
mostly young and cutting-edge designers who share the philosophy of individuality, uniqueness<br />
and boldness. Sauvage also presents an amazing selection of Loree Rodkin jewelry.<br />
Baltus Collection (3925 N. <strong>Miami</strong> Ave.) Based in Marbella, Spain, Baltus reinterprets classical<br />
furniture and transforms it into contemporary, high-end furniture.<br />
One of a Kind (92 NE 40th St.) East meets west and colonial meets contemporary to create<br />
One of Kind style in <strong>Miami</strong>. The sleek lines of contemporary furniture are combined with finely<br />
handcrafted Brazilian accessories and traditional Middle Eastern tapestry and lighting.<br />
Jonathan Adler (180 NE 39th St., Suite 109) is a design company dedicated to bringing style,<br />
craft, joy, and a general feeling of grooviness to any home. The store offers bedding, lighting,<br />
rugs, wall décor, artwork, pottery and accessories.<br />
