3. Uncurved Seating

Although chairs have been adopting comforting, wraparound shapes with domed curves for a few years, this fair saw the return of sharp, straight lines. That’s one of the things we noticed in creations by young designers, including Hugo Charlet, the young graduate selected by Paris Design Week Factory to showcase his designs for the first time.

The initiative chose to put the spotlight on his Pixa collection, a line of robust, rustic furniture designed for outdoor spaces. Their thick legs and oversized proportions are intriguing, but the manufacturing method also deserves attention. The collection is designed using a unique type of board made from pressure-treated pine for optimal resistance, making manufacturing as straightforward as possible while minimizing off-cuts and waste.

Highlights From the Maison & Objet Design Fair 2025

Surrealism on Display

Exhibitors at the event aced the surrealist theme with lots of enchanting designs.

“The guiding principle for this show is an utterly wild and colorful theme that encourages us to break the rules,” said interior architect Harmonie Henrio during a Formae/Archistorm discussion. “It makes me think of the mood of Poor Things with Emma Stone and also the images created using [AI design tool] Midjourney. You see a mix and match of objects and environments, as Thomas Haarmann did by bringing together different artists, materials, scales and eras in his Curatio space (pictured) and making them interact, which also invites us to free ourselves from established conventions.”

Designer of the Year

In another sign revealing the importance of including more sustainability in design and our homes, this edition of the show was led by Belgian designer Lionel Jadot, who is based in Zaventem near Brussels and was awarded Designer of the Year by Maison & Objet. This title recognizes a remarkable career, marked by an inventive and committed approach ever since he began working in the family factory at the age of 18.

Supported by a collective of local designers who are fully on board with this process, Jadot showcased his working methods through scenography entitled What’s New? In Hospitality. His inspiring hotel suite highlighted the use of sustainable materials, recycling and upcycling.

“Each object or material used in this project has already had another life traced back to other projects we’re currently working on in the hospitality sector,” he says.

10 Color Trends Spotted at Maison & Objet in Paris

No Comments



Maison & Object, the twice-annual international meeting of decoration, design and lifestyle professionals, returned to the Paris Norde Villepinte Exhibition Center on Sept. 5-9, 2024. The design fair showcased the main colors that will illuminate tomorrow’s furniture, coverings and accessories collections. The palette of new products at the September show was earthy and natural, bringing back into fashion the flagship shades of 1970s design in a retro-futuristic atmosphere.

1. The Return of Brown

Brown, which has been off the radar for several years, is making a comeback this fall, bringing with it all the nostalgia of the ‘70s. Warm, it is found mainly in tones of fawn and caramel. The fall collection by Dutch brand Dutchbone is proof of this, as the hue is used on numerous accessories and pieces of furniture such as the Appolo stool in Terra, pictured.

2. Heather Gray With a ‘70s Feel

Another key ‘70s hue, heather gray, was also very much in evidence on the show floor this year, as a favorite for seating textiles and sofas. It helps to create a retro aesthetic, as in this suite from Dutchbone. Heather fabrics are generally in vogue and can be found enhancing other shades, such as brown.

3. Autumnal Ochers

The new season envelops interiors in warm colors, with ocher hues taking center stage. They can be found as much on bed linens and accessories as on wall coverings. The new Aubusson collection from French wallpaper maker Papermint is proof of this, with the Douce Montage pattern featuring these soft, warm tones on a mountainous landscape.

4. Beige and Its Variations

Continuing the trend of warm tones, beige and its sister shades are widely present this year in the collections of various suppliers, creating a new mineral palette far from the cold rocky tones we’re used to seeing. Zuiver’s Saigon tapi is a perfect example, softening the nuances between grays and beiges.

5. From Cream to Bronze

One of the trends to emerge from this Maison & Objet is neutrality, with the idea of leaving more room for the environment surrounding the interior. Purity is the order of the day, with cream and beige tones, sometimes tending toward bronze. We find them here on the walls with another Papermint product: the L’envol du Héron print from the new Aubusson collection.

6. Terra Cotta Tends Toward Orange

Alongside these natural shades are brighter, more vivid colors. While terra cotta has been a favorite in interior design palettes in recent years, it is now giving way to orange. Increasingly present, it is generally seen in the form of small touches as an interior illuminator. These vases by Oustao Cicada are one example.

7. Shimmering Colors

Shimmering tones are the next big color trend this year. Inspired by new technologies, it has a futuristic aesthetic with its multicolored reflections reminiscent of rainbow hues, and its shimmering effects. Imperfettolad’s Beetle line is a perfect example of this with its iridescent fiberglass seats inspired by the shine of a beetle.

8. Wine Sediment Makes a Comeback

Halfway between burgundy and raspberry, wine sediment is also making a comeback this year, with hints of eggplant and even purple for the more daring. This is one of the shades chosen by Gimmic Design to adorn one of its office chairs. In addition to being stylish, they are also part of a circular economy approach to waste reduction.

9. Cosmic Blue

Blue also features prominently in exhibitors’ new collections. In its darkest forms, sometimes bordering on ultramarine, it recalls the theme of the sky, the cosmos. It was at the heart of the What’s New in Decor scenography, imagined as every year by renowned trendsetter Elizabeth Leriche.
