MAISON & OBJET 2023
Maison & Objet (find more here) is one of the world’s leading trade fairs for the lifestyle, interior design, and design industries. Each edition brings together some 2,300 exhibitors, promoting new contacts and emerging talents, and highlighting current and future trends. Taking place at the Parc des Expositions of Paris-Nord Villepinte, Maison&Objet 2023 is on a ‘quest of pleasures’, proudly displaying colors, extravagance, audacity, and humor as many added values of this new edition.
Amid the numerous participants, guests can find Masquespacio (find more here) with its Home exhibition featuring a range of ceramic objects created in-house combining 3D technology and craftsmanship. The objects boast the signature playful design and vibrant colors of the Valencia-based creative studio.
What’s more, at Maison & Objet, Bitossi Home (find more here) unveils its new 2023 collection that captures the creative spirit of the Tuscan brand. The series is enriched with a palette of soft colours, like the shapes, which find their primary inspiration in nature. Contrasting edges mix with primordial symbols; hearts, flowers, fruits decorate the plates of the collection, born in collaboration while stars, gold, and silver light up the festive table.
In addition, Japanese designer Hiroyuki Murase introduces his new project Creation as Dialogue, which aims to connect the cultures of craftsmanship between Nagoya and Europe. In collaboration with three established designers, Sawako Furukawa, Daisuke Hirabayashi, and Kodo Nawa, and ten Nagoya-based companies, the project launches a collection of products that embody the synergy between the two cultures.
