Explore the few condos available in Miami's best-known design, art and luxury fashion district: a boutique residential pocket next to Hermès, Dior and the galleries at ICA Miami.

The Design District started as a stretch of abandoned warehouses and, thanks to developer Craig Robins and his company Dacra, turned in a little over two decades into a global design, art and architecture destination across just 18 blocks. Today Hermès, Dior, Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Chanel sit alongside more than 200 flagship brands, the densest concentration of luxury flagships in Miami.
The cultural side is just as strong as the commercial one: ICA Miami (the Institute of Contemporary Art) and the de la Cruz Collection show top-tier contemporary art a few blocks apart, and Locust Projects keeps the neighborhood's experimental art scene alive.
What there's almost none of is housing. Unlike Edgewater, Midtown and Wynwood — its three immediate neighbors, which absorbed most of the corridor's new residential towers — the Design District set aside nearly all of its land for retail and culture. Baltus House, One Bay Residences and Quadro are, in practice, the district's only residential towers.
That scarcity is the reason to buy here, not a drawback: living in the Design District means living inside Miami's luxury showcase, with Downtown, Edgewater, Midtown and Wynwood minutes away via North Miami Avenue and a direct route onto I-95 and I-395 toward Miami Beach.
The Design District currently has only 7 active condos for sale across the whole MLS within its boundaries, and none of them is new construction. That's not a seasonal low — it's the nature of the area, whose development went into retail and mixed-use, not residential towers.
Practically all of the existing residential supply is split between three buildings — Baltus House, One Bay Residences and Quadro — with very low turnover. Buying here isn't choosing among many options: it's waiting for the right unit to come up, in Miami's most commercially dense luxury district.

Answers to the most common questions about inventory, existing buildings and the process of buying a condo in this area.
The Design District is the most recognized design, art and luxury fashion district in the United States: 18 blocks with Hermès, Dior, Cartier and more than 200 flagship brands, plus museums like ICA Miami. But that transformation went into retail and culture, not housing — today there's only a handful of active condos for sale in the whole area and no new construction underway. Buying here isn't betting on a growing market: it's getting into one of Miami's scarcest residential pockets, right next to Edgewater, Midtown and Wynwood, which absorbed most of the corridor's new towers.
Who buys in the Design District? Buyers who prioritize location and exclusivity over a wide range of options; Investors who see scarce inventory as a form of value protection, not a limitation; Fashion, design and art professionals who work or exhibit in the district; International buyers who visit Miami frequently and want a fixed base in its best-known luxury area.
There are currently 7 active condos for sale across the whole MLS within the area, and none of them is new construction. By design, it's one of Miami's lowest-inventory residential areas. We can flag it the moment a unit matching what you're looking for comes up.
Practically all of the supply sits in three towers: Baltus House, One Bay Residences and Quadro, the latter with 198 resort-style units across two 12-story towers. Outside them, the district is retail, galleries and restaurants.
Because the district's development went into retail, art and mixed-use — driven by developer Craig Robins since the early 2000s — not into residential towers. Its neighbors Edgewater, Midtown and Wynwood absorbed most of the corridor's residential growth.
It's a niche area, not a volume one: scarce inventory and a location next to more than 200 luxury brands support the value of the few available units, but there aren't many options to choose from. We don't guarantee returns: we help you evaluate whether this scarcity profile fits your goal.
Yes. International buyers can purchase property without being U.S. residents or citizens, and financing options exist depending on the buyer's profile. We help you access those options.
