A Peek Into Paris Design Week: Maison de Objet Highlights

Twice a year, Paris Design Week never fails to spark fresh inspiration, bringing together both visionary newcomers and long-admired masters of craft. This year, we were especially drawn to stone in unexpected colors, luxe mohairs in ochre, camel, and neutral tones, and inventive ways of blending lighting with furniture. Organic sculptural forms paired with curated accessories brought ingenuity and a sense of constant reinvention. Here are some of our most adored artisanal furniture vendors we discovered at the show. 

Jeremy Pradier-Jeauneau

Pradier-Jeauneau embodies what it means to create French design with a bold perspective. For Paris Design Week 2025, Jérémy Pradier-Jeauneau transformed the Hôtel de la Marine with The Maze, a monumental installation that blended contemporary design, fine craftsmanship, and French heritage across three areas of the landmark. We love his emphasis on the intersection of design and fashion. His new furniture collection made a statement with a sculptural sofa upholstered in Élitis mohair, balancing modern forms with timeless textures and tones.

Pierre Augustin Rose

At Maison & Objet, Pierre Augustin Rose made a splash with new pieces that embody the brand’s vision of seamlessly blending Parisian refinement with New York energy. In this image, a vibrant abstract wallcovering anchors the room, its bold colors setting the stage for sculptural forms to shine. The Sofa Vendôme, paired with matching armchairs, and the striking Kalos coffee table in white lacquer showcase the brand’s signature elegance. With natural curves balanced by graphic strength, the setting transforms into a living work of art.

As part of Paris Design Week, we were inspired by Gyeol – Where the Light Lingers, an exhibition celebrating the beauty and rhythm of Korean craft. Showcased within ADÈLE Collections in Paris, the work of 26 artisans explored how tradition and materials can be reinterpreted, layering light, textiles, and natural elements into an immersive experience. We love how the exhibition honors handmade objects, showing that craft continues to carry beauty and cultural meaning into the future.

Aurelien Serre

Aurélien Serre, trained at the Bordeaux School of Architecture, brings his passion for 20th-century design into a collection that feels both curated and contemporary. His new Left Bank gallery on Rue des Saints-Pères embodies this vision, where rare vintage finds are paired seamlessly with his own creations. We especially love his latest collection in soft, earthy tones. Luxurious mohairs, like this rich camel hue, offer an inventive slightly whimsical take on sophisticated furniture, infusing each piece with warmth.

Alain Ellouz Paris

Alain Ellouz has taken craftsmanship to the next level with a new series of pieces that blur the line between art and design, from luminous alabaster sculpted into new forms to textiles woven with rare French savoir-faire. The works—ECHO, ELLIPSE, and FUSION—demonstrate how light can become both furniture and atmosphere. A hand-tufted rug paired with hand-shaped alabaster pebbles feels completely fresh, unlike anything we’ve seen before. Ellouz continues to reinvent alabaster, a material that remains eternally classic and profoundly beautiful.
