Alongside the fairs Design Miami/ operates an ecommerce platform that facilitates the promotion and sale of historic and contemporary design works in addition to major brand collaborations and product launches.[https://www.designmiami.com/ designmiami.com] The Design Miami/ website is also host to Forum Magazine, a digital design-centric editorial publication.[https://shop.designmiami.com/blogs/news/ Forum Magazine]
Design Miami/ was founded in 2005 by entrepreneur, real estate developer, and art and design collector Craig Robins. In 2000, Robins began working to transform the previously-abandoned Miami Design District into a center for innovative design, architecture, fashion, food and art. By 2005 the renewal of the Miami Design District inspired the creation of the Design Miami/ company and annual fair, shortly followed by Design Miami/ Basel, an annual design fair in Basel, Switzerland.{{cn|date=January 2025}}
