From January 18-22, design devotees descended on Paris for the home decor, furnishings, and lifestyle trade show Maison&Objet.

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.

REV Architecture studio designed the showcase for the Hospitality Lab space, a tangible, inspired, and bold embodiment of the hybridization of hospitality spaces, creating a bridge between hotel lobbies and luxury flagships. “Since my arrival ten months ago, we have paid particular attention, with all the teams, to listening to our clients, both exhibitors and visitors, to find solutions adapted to everyone’s needs,” said Mélanie Leroy, Managing Director of Maison&Objet. “Our efforts have focused on the ‘premiumisation’ of the offer, incorporating a significant amount of newness, on inspiration through the enhancement of promising markets and unprecedented stagings, and on offering useful and applicable solutions to support them in their projects.
