Interview Magazine is hosting Art Basel at Miami Beach this year, in honor of Interview’s 40th Anniversary they’ll be stocking the vending machine along with a number of chic and sophisticated partners. These products will be curated with unique and symbolic retail items to celebrate 40 years of pop culture; one of a kind creations, rare editions, new releases, cult classics and exclusive experiences. The Semi-Automatic vending machine which is already in‐situ at the Mondrian Hotel South Beach since January 2009 is a dispenser of everything luxurious, it takes over an entire wall in the hotel lobby with a sleek and minimalist Japanese design by Ito Partnership. With just a swipe of a credit card, your items of desire are dispensed in sealed bags. My favorite items are the Subversive Jewelry for Dr. Martens (exclusively for Interview) $1400 (super duper hot) and the Vena Cava canvas shoes $20, I’m so tempted to go! So get your credit cards ready and book your tickets because you won’t want to miss out on these limited edition fashion and art-centric items available only for the duration of Art Basel at Miami Beach from December 3-6.
