THEME « ENERGIES »

Meet in Hall 7 this year theme. “The time has come to recharge our batteries. Where design is concerned, we shouldn’t save our energies. Quite the reverse. We are encouraging use when circulating good vibrations. Driving forces are revving up in order to foresee the bubbling changes underway and to stimulate the high-voltage dynamic of desire. Positive, optimism-inducing waves are electrifying the established order. This is a beneficent motion that is freeing our imaginations, reinvigorating unexpected aesthetics and activating alternative currents.” from maison-objet.com
