Disco + Design | Miami Art Week 2025 | Dec 04, 05 + 06 from 12pm- 6pm.

Disco + Design 2025 | Second Annual Edition

Disco + Design is a diorama-style installation and cultural program that celebrates disco’s enduring influence on design, sound, and creative expression.

Presented during Miami Art Week 2025, Disco + Design takes place in a hidden, 440-square-foot back room at BeyBey in Miami Beach - once a gallery, now transformed into a contemporary, sculptural + cinematic space styled after a 1970s curator’s listening den.

Curated by Disco + Design founder Michelle Leshem, co-founder Sam Baum, and interior designer Michael Dolatowski, the Disco + Design 2025 diorama features collectible furniture, hi-fi audio, lighting fixtures and other decor pieces from UMA Objects, Soon Atelier, Furn Objects, Rich Aybar, Ninefrtn, Arrived Aliens, and work by AI Filmmaker/Animator Tom Laroc all set to a disco soundscape that spans classic, obscure, and contemporary cuts.

Disco + Design positions disco as a living creative language - a cultural movement that continues to shape how we design, build, listen, + live.

A NOTE FROM DISCO + DESIGN FOUNDER, MICHELLE LESHEM

“Disco + Design is our way of showing how music and design are connected.

The 70s gave us iconic sounds and iconic furniture, and both still inspire what we listen to and what we put in our homes today. From the disco ball to the shapes of the pieces we’re showing, you can see how nightlife and design have always shaped each other—and still do.

The soundscape spans classic, obscure, and contemporary disco - selected to mirror the origins, inspirations, and cultural eras behind the furniture and objects on view."
