This year's first edition of Maison & Objet sees designers embracing the elements, with landscape-inspired surface and pattern, precious natural materials and an emphasis on craft techniques.
| LSA International |
The four elements of earth, water, fire and air inspire earthy textures, watery print and pattern, smoky surfaces and volcanic glazes.
| Tinja |
Zingy sherbet yellow is a key colour direction. Many brands use this eye-catching colour for a key product or an iconic chair. Tinja have used this colour across an entire tea set and co-ordinating ceramic tabletop.
| Kas |
Landscapes are a new emerging direction for prints, as seen at Sydney-based brand Kas with its Impressionist-style scatter cushion.
| Bosc |
Cocooning shapes and blanket upholstery continue as major trends for furniture, with toggles, buttons and oversize keyholes translated directly from clothing to seating for a casual, DIY feel.
| Bosc |
Precious natural materials such as mother of pearl and onyx are used for whole tabletops or picked out as an inlay detail.
| Haymann |
Mirrors have been given inventive functional and decorative updates across the show, from built-in shelves to looped handles and playful outlines.
