Arts and crafts at Maison Sarah Lavoine
Nico, Loulou, Dani, Twiggy are the names, tributes to the abundant 1960s and 70s, of the new pieces offered by Maison Sarah Lavoine.
Nico is a series of seats where solid walnut, lacquered beech, ivory joints meet... which illustrates the magnificent know-how of woodturning and upholstery.
Lulu?
This totem-like lamp with its blown glass globes set with walnut and lacquered wood rings houses perforated metal cages.
Dani is a coffee table whose top is made of enamelled lava from the volcanoes of Auvergne.
As for Twiggy, a rug tufted by hand in France, with its interlacing of lines and shades of aubergine, rust and the famous Sarah blue, we want it immediately.
Ultra-desirable, this collection called Singuliers highlights the central role of the trades of

A new setting for Boffi/DePadova
The new Boffi/DePadova boutique on boulevard Raspail is a global, inspiring experience, which brings together the entire offer: from sublime kitchens to furniture for the bedroom, living room, bathroom equipment and even partitioning solutions. .
Boffi/DePadova / press photo
Wow effect guaranteed as soon as you push the door of the new Boffi/DePadova boutique on boulevard Raspail.
More than a boutique, this huge address is a space of inspiration installed in the mythical Kenzo address that remained closed for a long time.
There therefore floats between these walls, under the large glass roof, a particular atmosphere that Boffi/DePadova knew how to tame.
The whole universe of the brand is thus presented: the sublime kitchens, of course, but also the sofas, the armchairs, the tables, the bookcases, the bedroom... It is finally the opportunity to discover in the same place all the Boffi/DePadova experiments.
We walk around, we pick up good vibes,
we find solutions… Above all, we do not fail to go down to the basement to dive into the bathrooms and also explore all the door proposals to partition our house according to our lifestyle.
An already unmissable spot.

Variable geometry at Deirdre Dyson
Freedom rug from the Angles collection by Deidre Dyson or how to put a painting at your feet.
Deirdre Dyson
Every Deidre Dyson rug collection is an event.
Because, also a painter, this creator sees this medium as a work of art.
Met a good year ago, she said she was still looking for inspiration after the launch of her line of carpets imagined on a boat during confinement.
Waves, waves and blue floods then illuminated his gallery.
Deidre Dyson did well to take her time to design this new series.
She worked around Angles that break, extend, mix to create abstract and hypnotic landscapes that we would see at her feet as well as hanging on the walls.
His work on the colors, always so precise and accurate, adds to the beauty of these carpets and allows impressions of unexpected reliefs.
A real favorite to discover rue des Saints-Pères.

Shaping at Tai Ping
For his collaboration with Tai Ping, Patrice Juan puts the forms.
Fabrice Juan Series-Angelo IH
The Hong Kong rug publisher Tai Ping invited the French designer and decorator Fabrice Juan to create a series of rugs.
He imagined seven ultra-graphic models with strong colors where we find some references to Pierre Cardin in particular.
A contemporary bias proposed by one of the most fervent defenders of the French art of living.

Trip to Japan at Designers Guild
With its new Ikebana collection, Designers Guild creates a bridge between the English garden and the art of the Japanese Designers Guils bouquet.
Tricia Guild, the creator of the emblematic English publishing house of fabrics and wallpapers, Designers Guild, immersed herself in the Japanese art of living to create a collection that is fresh, joyful and refined at the same time.
With Ikebana, it's a breath of fresh air that enters the house.
Passionate about greens, Tricia Guild was inspired by these Japanese bouquets to create textiles and wallpapers that respond to each other to create interior landscapes evoking fields and forests.
Flowers are also present, a nod to cherry blossoms.
References to shibori, a dyeing technique reminiscent of tie and dye, bring more graphic, soothing references to the whole.
A beautiful quest for harmony.

Beautiful feelings at Gien
An archipelago of colors and poetry signed Jean-Charles de Castelbajac for Gien.
Gien
Jean-Charles de Castelbajac sits down to eat at Gien.
He thus imagined for the pottery a Sentimental Archipelago made up of flat and dessert plates, cake dishes, cakes, mugs, a mute servant, tablecloths, sets... He started from the observation that the table is an ocean of conversations and emotions.
He therefore created small islets as stopovers during a meal.
We find in this collection his taste for bold colors – blue, red and yellow – and his poetic line.
Doves, moons, suns, stars, hearts and lovers inhabit this archipelago where the magnificent imagination of Jean-Charles de Castelbajac and the unique know-how of the Faïencerie de Gien have landed.

Sweetness of life at Flamant by Tollens
Let the Flamingo Beetle by Tollens run along a section of wall.
Flamingo by Tollens
Clay, Beetle, Turtle: here are the three new interior paint references from Flamant by Tollens.
The tone is immediately set: nature is in the spotlight.
A nature where the sophisticated gray of clay meets the dark and delicate mauve of an insect which in mythology symbolizes the rebirth of the sun and green as if escaping from a clearing on a winter morning.
A trio that invites you to slow living.

Surrealism at Lalique
When Magritte meets Lalique it gives a crystal version of the Treachery of Images.
Magritte x Lalique
When Lalique meets the soul of René Magritte, it results in absolutely surreal and extraordinary limited series crystal sculptures.
This collaboration between the famous Manufacture and the Magritte Foundation celebrates the 125th anniversary of the artist's birth.

Refinement at Armani/Casa
Dream trip to the Far East with Nikko wallpaper by Armani/Casa Armani/Casa
As always with Armani/Casa, elegance is key.
The new Refined Structures 3 wallpaper collection designed in collaboration with Jannelli&Volpi perfectly illustrates the timeless chic so dear to the label.
The choice of a vinyl support makes it possible to create numerous material effects.
These are associated with details that evoke different worlds.
The Moiré finishes of the Nothing Hill range recall the precious yarns and fabrics of fashion.
The bamboo and gingko leaf patterns of the Nikko or Dali models are a tribute to the Far East.
The Vendôme line, with its trompe-l'oeil and woodwork effects, is a reference to old wall coverings.
The dense network of streets and alleys of old Brooklyn or the energy of the Shinjuku district in Tokyo were also sources of inspiration.

A myth in the open air at Cassina
Cassina publishes Mexico tables and stools by Charlotte Perriand in an outdoor version.
Valentina Sommariva
Its triangular shape with rounded corners designed to optimize space has made it an icon, making it instantly recognizable.
The Mexico table designed in 1952 by Charlotte Perriand, as part of her work on "free-form" furniture for the student rooms of the Maison du México at the Cité Internationale in Paris, has been reissued by Cassina in collaboration with Pernette Perriand-Barsac, in an “open air” version.
This myth is therefore now on the garden side thanks to the use of new materials and finishes, without losing any of its unique and organic allure.

A very large restaurant at Christofle
Chez Christofle, a very large restaurant where silverware rubs shoulders with porcelain and blown glass and where chic and audacity lead to fries.
Christofle
Rue Royale, Christophe set the table with style, humor and quirkiness.
On the menu in this small space full of great ideas, silverware, of course, but also porcelain with Malmaison Impériale La Suite, i.e. 8 pieces - serving dishes, soup plates, tea cups and saucers and coffee...- which complete the collection initiated in 2022. We also note the blown glass with Tourbillon born from a collaboration with Alya Tannous.
In short, enough to set the table with art, inspired by the codes of this house which is reinventing itself with joy and audacity.
Milky joy at Pinto
Pinto places the house under good stars with a collection of twelve rugs illustrated with zodiac constellations.

Want to reach seventh heaven?
We go to admire the new Constellations collection from Pinto.
It is composed of 12 rugs displaying a constellation of the zodiac, two patinated bronze light fixtures, dressed in porcelain and crystal stars, two low tables with a marble top named Moon and Eclipse and a sumptuous bed as in weightlessness imagined in collaboration with Le Lit National.
The dream, in short.

At the Maison & Objet show, a luminous flight signed Raphaël Navot and Flos Bespoke.
Aethion
Paris Déco Off is held in parallel with the Maison & Objet trade fair, where decoration professionals from all over the world meet.
The place welcomes, in Villepinte, in addition to stands, trendy spaces and installations.
For this edition, Raphaël Navot, designer and architect, elected Designer of the Year by the show, imagined the Apothem Lounge, the embodiment of a visual emotion caused by a flood of light.
Stars of this scenography are the suspensions designed by Raphaël Navot, materialized by Flos Bespoke, still in the prototyping phase.
Presented in their raw state, they evoke the flying lanterns of ancient Egypt.
