Maison&Objet Paris is set to captivate the design world once again with its upcoming edition from January 16 to 20, 2025. Celebrating the centenary of the Surrealist movement, this edition adopts the theme "Sur/Reality," inviting participants to explore the intersection of fantasy and functionality in design.
Theme: Sur/Reality
Developed in collaboration with Peclers Paris, the "Sur/Reality" theme delves into the resurgence of contemporary neo-Surrealism. It encourages designers to incorporate elements of fantasy, distortion, and the bizarre, resulting in unexpected objects and dreamlike settings that intrigue and captivate.
Designer of the Year: Faye Toogood
British designer Faye Toogood has been honored as the Designer of the Year for this edition. Known for her multidisciplinary approach, Toogood's work spans furniture, interiors, fashion, and sculpture, consistently challenging conventional design norms. At Maison&Objet, she will present "WOMANIFESTO!," an installation inspired by the "Sur/Reality" theme, offering an immersive journey into her creative process.
Hospitality Focus
Recognizing the evolving demands of the hospitality sector, Maison&Objet January 2025 will feature dedicated offerings tailored to hotels and restaurants. The "What's New? In Hospitality" space, curated by the creative collective Uchronia, will showcase innovative products and designs that embody the "Sur/Reality" theme, inspiring hospitality professionals to create unique and memorable experiences for their guests.
