SHOW-ROOM
“In our digital times, a whole world of lifestyles is just a click away. The well-honed online consumer becomes the artistic director and designer of his/her interior and social networks do the spadework, clearing the ground and only leaving objects of desire. Homemakers indulge in a form of decorative exhibitionism and, with transparency in every shape, size and form, showcase their significant objects in display cases or on shelves. Walls show off these new collectors’ juxtaposed accumulation of pictures or their modern-day take on decorative plates; still lifes are arranged as if posing to have their photo taken ready to be posted on Instagram; and light transforms volumes in a dramatic and theatrical approach to interiors that brings a touch of magic back into everyday life.”
– Maison et Objet
AGENCE NELLYRODI
This time was the turn of Agence NellyRodi to design the Inspirations Space and the Café-Bookstore around the SHOW-ROOM concept, that was inspired by a variety of social, industry and marketing topics. This concept is going to be discussed at L’Espace Conférences, where you can find out in more detail all about the context of lifestyle trends.
Maison et Objet had an interview with the designer and scenographer of the Inspirations Forum and Bookshop-café for January 2018 Vincent Grégoire that explained that the concept of this Inspirations Theme was inspired by the new generation of hyper-connected and hyperinformed consumers. He also highlights the fact that consumers are becoming trendsetters themselves and that “it is no longer the product that makes the consumer, but the consumer that makes the product.”
“Consumers play the parts of art directors, designers, architects, merchandisers, visual communication experts or even sales ambassadors
– Vincent Grégoire
When asked about the main message of this exhibition, Vincent Grégoire says that the Inspirations Space has the main purpose of question the status quo and to share your opinion just like on social networks.
