Design Destination: The DKORista’s Guide to Midtown and Wynwood Miami

If you live in our city, or simply visited it, you have probably heard about Wynwood Miami! This is the latest artsy and upcoming spot. But, have you heard about its nearby neighbor: Midtown? If you want to kill two birds with one stone, it is a good idea to visit both neighborhoods in one day. We suggest you start in Midtown, enjoy a bite to eat there, then head out to Wynwood. Spend the afternoon and end the day there, inspired by all the art surrounding you. Just follow our guide below!

First things first, in Midtown, even though it is in the same area, the design shops are apart from each other so you might want to take your car or have your ridesharing app ready to go. The Midtown area is in full expansion. In the past two to three years, high rise buildings have just popped out of nowhere! The neighborhood is starting to find its own character with the main area being the Shops at Midtown, mainly due to the Target there. Although in the surrounding area, great design stores have opened to complement the existing furniture showrooms.
