Twice unsuccessfully we tried to barge our way into this promising space among the other Design Miami happenings and were denied both times. "Not open," a construction-type told us around 6. "Not ready yet," a representative of 24-Hour Security said as he barred us from the door at 8. A few hours later we came back and never wanted to leave this hand-lettered love den again. Stephen Powers, who you might call ESPO, and his gang of artists were fenced in a studio on the far wall, slapping paint on whatever, including a rabid fan's sketchbook.

Lots more goodness right this way...
