Bedrooms and bathrooms are the quintessential places for taking time for oneself. “RITUALIST” presents François Bernard’s take on the question in three themes – “Laboured”, “Contemplative” and “Expressionist”. He explores the most noteworthy new products in a sector where wellness rituals go hand in hand with beautiful objects that combine craftsmanship and technology.
Influenced by growing environmental awareness, the lifestyle sector is expressing more than ever before a need to live in harmony with nature. In the three sections of “MOTHER EARTH” – “Forest Fever”, “Sea Shore” and “Stone Age” – Elizabeth Leriche illustrates new rituals of sharing and gastronomy inspired by the vital energy and poetic forces of nature.
“ALIVE !” Like a cry from the heart, the living areas WHAT’S NEW? space finds inspiration in this year’s theme, (RE) GENERATION, to explore correlations between the living world and interior decoration. “Vegetal Symbiosis”, “Organic Life” and “Mineral Memories” form a veritable ecosystem devised by François Delclaux around the 3 categories of life on earth.
