The Museum launches its Design Collection with an international preview at Alcova Miami.

What does it mean to collect design today? Lorenza Baroncelli, MAXXI Architecture Department Director, discusses the Museum’s newly launched design collection with Joseph Grima, cofounder of Alcova, together with Eleni Petaloti (Objects of Common Interest), Kostas Lambridis and Stef Fusani, all of whose work has been recently acquired by the Museum.

The talk is part of the Alcova Miami programme, the first overseas edition of Alcova, the platform for designers and companies investigating the future of living and making, founded by Valentina Ciuffi (Studio Vedèt) and Joseph Grima (Space Caviar).

This year, the exhibition takes place in the unique spaces of the Selina Gold Dust Motel, one of the most iconic motels in Miami’s Biscayne Boulevard district.
