There’s no better way to get your brain back in gear for the new season than at Maison&Objet Paris<\/strong><\/b>…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Last January, to mark its thirtieth anniversary,<\/strong><\/b> the leading international event for interior design professionals had already chosen a theme -Tech Eden- highlighting new trends in the hybridization of nature and technology.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The theme of the second edition of its thirtieth anniversary<\/strong><\/b>, which takes place from September 5 to 9, 2024 at the Parc des Expositions de Paris-Villepinte<\/strong><\/b>, is particularly well-suited to taking off from the cow floor. Or \u201cTerra Cosmos\u201d,<\/strong><\/b> detected by the fine antennae of trend agency Peclers Paris.<\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Terra Cosmos, which translates as the inspiration of space exploration in our interiors,<\/strong><\/b> is thus reflected in the different areas of the show, through the \u201cdeciphering of new desires and expectations of consumers in search of total experiences\u201d. \u201cIt’s a cosmic vision of the future, but one that’s firmly rooted in the reality of a show <\/strong><\/b>that’s \u201cresolutely focused on novelty, creativity and innovation<\/strong><\/b>\u201d.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Because space exploration,<\/strong><\/b> a concept no longer reserved for a few cosmonauts but now open to sensation-seeking billionaires, is increasingly appealing to the general public<\/strong><\/b>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n But let’s return to more down-to-earth considerations. The autumn<\/strong><\/b> 2024 edition<\/strong><\/b> of Maison&Objet, an event organized by Safi -which also heads up Paris Design Week and MOM (Maison&Objet’s digital platform)<\/strong><\/b>– will welcome 2,289 exhibitors, including 600 new ones.<\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n These are divided into 15 sectors:<\/strong><\/b> \u201cSmart Gifts <\/b>, Fashion Accessories<\/b>, Cook & Share,<\/b> Pattern Lab,<\/b> Home Accessories <\/b>, Home Fragrances <\/b>, Home Linen<\/b>, Smart Gifts and <\/strong><\/b> Fashion Accessories,<\/strong><\/b> Forever (<\/strong><\/b>proposals from manufacturers and editors for interiors with character), Kids & Family <\/strong><\/b>(furniture, games and decor for children), Projects<\/strong><\/b> (interior design solutions), Signature <\/strong><\/b>(master furniture and decor), Today (<\/strong><\/b>the best in contemporary design), Unique & Eclectic <\/strong><\/b>(cultural treasures and decorative nuggets for a singular interior), Well-Being & Beauty<\/strong><\/b> (wellness products).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As a reminder, during its January 2024<\/strong><\/b> edition, Maison & Objet attracted 2,516 brands from 62 countries,<\/strong><\/b> 70,668<\/strong><\/b> unique visitors<\/strong><\/b> from 147 countries<\/strong><\/b>, including 40,916 from France.
