The array of products reflects the Florida market, like flamingo print scarves and brightly colored items, said Peter Malachi, Hermès’ senior vice president of communications. Though a crisp contemporary feeling defines the interior, there are numerous nods to Hermès’s heritage of craftsmanship, classic materials, and timeless style. Near the entrance, signature leather accents abound in the home section, evoking the brand’s roots as a harness- and saddlemaker. In the first-floor Saint-Louis crystal shop, glassware and other vessels shimmer on darkly stained oak shelves. The jewelry-and-watch room on the second level, meanwhile, is distinguished by warm cherry paneling.

Construction on another 20 stores has begun, and those stores will start to open in late 2016, he said. The occasion also drew about 35 members of the extended Dumas clan, many of whom visited Miami for the first time because they were curious about the new retail and cultural frontier. MIAMI — In a city known for epic partying, residents are pretty spoiled with soirees.

"What Craig is doing in the district is going to significantly change that whole area, and will become a major draw over a longer period of time," he said. "We think other luxury retailers will join us."Already, Louis Vuitton exited Bal Harbour at the end of May, when its lease expired, and announced its intention to open a Design District store in 2014. Other luxury brands in residence at the Design District include Christian Louboutin and Marni. Robins has said his goal is to sign leases with 20 to 30 luxury retailers over the next five years, and he's targeting other LVMH brands, as well as Prada, Chanel and Gucci. After shuttering its longtime Bal Harbour, Fla., store, the brand had operated in a temporary space around the corner in the Miami Design District since 2013.
The Hermes Miami Design District boutique is also home to a variety of events. From fashion shows and trunk shows to book signings and cocktail parties, the boutique is always hosting something special. Some of the tenants, who requested anonymity, have said business has been slow to take off in the district, with sparse shopper traffic. Robins admitted that “the business in Miami has been a bit challenged, with the Brazilians and the Russians,” a reference to Brazil’s economic downturn and Russia’s prolonged recession.
Shopping
The collection includes furniture, lighting, rugs, and décor pieces that are both stylish and timeless. Whether you’re looking for something modern or something more classic, the Hermes Home Collection has something for everyone. Feting its tropical locale, the house issued accessories such as the Oran sandal and Pliplat handbag in exclusive colors like rosy salmon, yellow and blue.

Inside Hermès’ New Miami Design District Flagship
It can be described as a glass box covered with an exoskeleton of steel beams painted white and striated with hundreds of vertical steel tubes of varying thickness. In the afternoon hours, the sun shines through the building’s façade, casting an interesting shadow play across the interior’s terrazzo floors. The floor-to-ceiling glass and incoming natural light create a welcoming atmosphere for shoppers to enjoy the full Hermès collection.

Denis Montel, artistic director for the RDAI architecture firm in Paris, designed the permanent, multilevel location with a rooftop garden at 163 NE 39th Street. His concept borrows from the city’s wealth of white minimalism, including a streamlined, sculptural staircase, but considers its wild nature and copious natural light. The glass facade’s grid of white-coated, vertical steel tubes implies a thick forest, while a real Guiana chestnut tree in a courtyard offers a zen moment. At 13,000 square feet, the size of the store is on par with the brand’s Beverly Hills unit; only the New York flagship on Madison Avenue is larger in the U.S. When their lease expired in Miami’s Bal Harbour Shops, the firm opened a temporary store in the Design District while building the new flagship nearby. The new store’s façade was designed by Paris-based architectural firm RDAI’s Artistic Director, Denis Montel.
Rafael Viñoly Architects unveils plans for four residential towers in Midtown Toronto.
From clothing and shoes to bags and scarves, the boutique has everything you need to look stylish and sophisticated. The boutique also features exclusive items that you won’t find anywhere else. Madison Group, in collaboration with Rafael Viñoly Architects, has unveiled plans for four new skyscrapers in Toronto’s Midtown, marking the firm’s first venture in Canada. These structures, comprising 2,364 residential units and more than 54,000 square feet of public space, will also feature office and retail amenities to enhance the urban experience. Notably, the project will incorporate distinct architectural elements like red paneling and impact Toronto’s skyline.
The brand is trading Bal Harbour Shops for an area with a hip undercurrent that’s in the throes of gentrification. By the end of 2017, Dacra will have 120 stores open on its own property, and other property owners will have another 40. At the top of store’s rooftop sits the Hermès symbol of a horse, one of just six stores in the world to have it . “The fact that they chose Miami as one of six cities in the world is a huge statement for us,” Robins said. “We felt it was definitely a market where we wanted to make a significant investment,” Chavez said.
The centerpiece of this floor is the large, swooping staircase inviting visitors up to the second and third floors. Hermès brings enduring craftsmanship, rich heritage and timeless Parisian style to the boutique at Miami Design District. Encompassing all 14 product categories of the House, ranging from leather goods, such as the iconic Birkin and Kelly handbags, to men's cashmere suits and fine silk scarves and ties, each object is made by hand, employing the same technique and knowledge practiced nearly two centuries ago. We love the aqua tables outside and the pretty pink bar stools inside… basically, a restaurant designed for IG. What other neighborhood can tout a parking garage that’s its own standalone work of art?
The white decor with contemporary furniture makes an elegant setup to highlight the brand’s clothing, accessories and scarves. The first level which features a mosaic printed floor is home to menswear, home decor and the first Saint-Louis (Europe’s oldest operating glass-maker) shop-in-shop in the U.S. The store’s second floor showcases Hermès’ silk scarves, fashion jewelry, accessories, and the brand’s watch and fine jewelry collection.
