Мэдиев, interior designer: “The French are the pioneers of interior art, so the attention to this exhibition is quite understandable. It captures what has already happened in society: we saw here how manufacturers reacted to the atmosphere of the crisis and created things that demonstrate a desire to live, enjoy, and not make an impression. I think in this sense, the crisis has a good influence on the interior design. One example of this approach is the stand. BAXTER with his Ever green concept. ”

Elena Arkhipova, Archistudio: “For me, the exhibition Maison&Objet - it is always a kind of magic, a true Parisian charm and charm of France. At the booth MISSONI HOME there was a true triumph of color! Absolutely new floral theme “bloomed” on fabrics, carpets, towels and robes. As always, on the stand VGNEWTREND there was a full house - the visitors were convinced again: home furnishings and accessories from VG can transform any space. ”

Natalia Vasilyeva, DeLUXE Нome Creation: “The ubiquity of naturalness continues: natural and aged wood, stone, glazed ceramics, textiles with an emphasis on eco and bio. Stand concept ANDREW MARTIN was to connect a bold industrial design with your favorite Martin waller theme of pop art. At this time, a luminous panel on the theme of American television shows served as a spectacular accent. ”

Natalya Legotina, architect: "January Salon Maison&Objet reflected the latest trends and preferences - white blue and gray-blue shades, illusory lightness of form: the exhibition was permeated with the freshness and coolness of winter. Furniture innovations turned out to be rather expected and did not impress so much, although it is impossible to leave without attention the exposition of EICHHOLTZ factories, GIVEN NOTICE and black and white collection of plumbing with a touch ar-deko of the company DEVON&DEVON».

Anthony Grande, Grande Group: “This time the participation of Italian factories is very noticeable. Their number has increased significantly. In some places, the exhibition (in particular, the seventh pavilion) increasingly resembles the Milanese Si'alon. What does this mean? About many things. About the convergence of markets, about cosmopolitanism in the interior world, that the furniture industry is developing. "

Irma Yuneeva, Versace: “This year in Paris, many factories presented their new products. The collections have preserved trends in the use of natural colors and materials. All done in restrained, classic colors. The exhibition was presented a lot of porcelain. Including new factory collections ROSENTHAL/VERSACEwhich will certainly become bestsellers. ”

Silverio Marian, W.W.T.S.: “Two important interior exhibitions take place one after another - in Cologne and in Paris. And it is more appropriate to consider their results together. They are very, very different and in different ways reflect the processes taking place in the furniture world and in the decor market. In Paris, important news was presented in showrooms. RUBELLI, DONGHIA and DOMINIQUE KIEFFER. First RUBELLI presented their new items not at the exhibition, but in the showroom in Saint-Germain. In my opinion, this is a good experience. Time will tell".

Julia Kochetova, Lalique, Christofle: “On the whole, the exhibition seemed calm: both the collections themselves, and the color decisions, and the return of many stamps to what was once published, to its roots — everything disposed to contemplation and relaxation. Return to basics demonstrated and factory LALIQUE his anniversary collection "Dedication", in which many of the iconic works of Rene Lalique, created in 1910-1943, were republished. Two vases presented at the exhibition are made in the technique of "lost wax" - this is a find for obsessed collectors. "

Syriac Drappo, Grange: “This year we presented a large exposition with different interior zones. We have shown a lot of new things, but in each thing there is a philosophy of the brand - traditions and their modern reading. It seems to me that the atmosphere of the French exhibition as a whole is the same. She retains this spirit of old charm and at the same time takes into account the most modern trends in design, decor and technology. ”

Vyacheslav Zaitsev, Yves Delorme: “I would like to note a revival compared with the previous exhibition Maison&Objet. Such a number of people was expected, but still very nice. The collections are more commercial this time. If earlier the emphasis was placed more often on designer delights, now there is more utility, but, fortunately, not to the detriment of beauty. That is, before the crisis, things were primarily beautiful rather than comfortable. ”

Nina Prudnikova, architect: “Judging by the number of visitors, interest in the exhibition does not fall. Five years ago, when I first visited Maison&Objet, in the West, a trend of advancing the style of flamant. For Russia, it was then new, but now it has grown and multiplied. Radically new ideas, I think, until we have to wait because of the crisis. Manufacturers are afraid to take risks and work in the usual direction. ”
