Noteworthy French designers like Pierre Yovanich, Fleur Delesalle, and Pierre August Rose captivated attendees with their innovative creations, featuring curvaceous, bubble-like forms adorning sofas and chairs, which have since become global trends. This is very much in line with the 2024 trends – mixing maximalist and minimalist design approaches – offering a captivating glimpse into the diverse trends shaping the year ahead.
