Sometimes it seems like our world is peopled entirely by yesterday’s and tomorrow’s Designers of the Year.

This year the honor goes to David Adjaye and he will be designing a site specific installation for the entrance to the fair’s temporary structure on Miami Beach, open from November 29 through December 4.
