9 Design Obsessions This Winter

February 6, 2026

What caught our eye in Paris: an insider edit of what’s next, discovered at Déco Off.

This season, our design obsessions come directly from what we experienced in Paris at Déco Off, where spaces and pieces felt layered, one-of-a-kind, and effortlessly cool.

We’re inspired by the interplay of old and new. Modern silhouettes softened by a touch of vintage and patina, and classic shapes reimagined with fresh upholstery or finishes. We love the Claude Home vintage dining chairs and the antique buffet from The Invisible Collection.

We’re always on the lookout for a cool new textile, and at Maison we were reminded that striking wall treatments still play a leading role. We saw beautiful concepts ranging from woven leather wallcoverings with hand stitching to graphic wallcoverings like the Boråstapeter brand in a timeless stripe. A good reminder that stripes never go out of style and that they bring depth and character to a room.

Lighting has taken on a more artistic role this season, feeling less expected and more sculptural than what you see everywhere else. 

Textiles are everything in design, which is why we’re grateful for exceptional brands like Dedar. We love their new tartan Castles fabric and can’t wait to incorporate it into an upcoming project. We were also drawn to Thierry Lemaire’s plush sofa, soft to the touch with inviting, rounded curves.

Stone continues to show up everywhere, from marble to limestone to travertine. We swooned over pieces like the Echo dining table and the Manifeste stool.

Our time in Paris reaffirmed what we believe most about great design. The pieces that last are thoughtful, layered, and grounded in craftsmanship. Maison offered a clear view of what feels current while remaining timeless, and these are the ideas we’re excited to continue bringing into our work and recommending to our clients.
