MAISON&OBJET’S SEPTEMBER 2025 EDITION CENTERS AROUND RENEWAL

Opening its doors on September 4, 2025, Maison&Objet presents a design showcase centered on the theme of renewal. With two yearly shows, the September edition is all about what is new, offering an experimental approach that highlights young talents, new design practices, and the complementarities between disciplines. To embody this fresh creative energy, Maison&Objet has entrusted its artistic direction to Amélie Pichard, who presents the immersive installation ‘WELCOME HOME‘ — an open-plan house where design and craftsmanship meet.

AN ECOSYSTEM OF CREATIVITY FROM THE FAIR TO THE CITY

Maison&Objet’s dynamic program extends beyond the fairgrounds, transforming the entire city into an open-air laboratory for creativity. Paris Design Week, which celebrates its 15th anniversary, runs in parallel to the fair from September 4 to 13, offering a unique exploration through the city’s key creative districts: Le Marais, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Opéra, Bastille, and more.

With over 375 activated locations, the one-week event is a vibrant celebration of design in motion. Galleries, concept stores, showrooms, artisan workshops, and major design houses open their doors to host exhibitions, installations, and exclusive events, inviting everyone to be part of Paris’s vibrant design scene.

SPOTLIGHTING THE FUTURE OF DESIGN AND CREATIVITY

Conceived as a true laboratory of ideas and experimentation, the September 2025 edition reaffirms Maison&Objet’s ambition to open up new horizons for professionals. The fair presents a redesigned layout into six streamlined sectors across four halls to offer a clearer perspective on the market. These sectors — Cook & Share, Decor & Design, Craft, Fragrance & Wellness, Fashion & Accessories, and Gift & Play — are organized for a more intuitive visitor experience, with a shared goal of spotlighting what will shape the design of tomorrow.

With an unique ecosystem in support of emerging talent, the show features three flagship programs. Through the Rising Talent Awards, Future On Stage, and the Factory spaces, the fair acts as a springboard, providing a platform for the next generation of designers to showcase their work and connect with the industry’s top players. The reinvented format with a bold, cross-disciplinary program, marks Maison&Objet’s September 2025 show as a pivotal moment, exploring the ever-evolving role of design in our lives.
