Despite bitterly cold winter temperatures, Maison&Objet warmed up the decor, design and lifestyle sector with lots of colour and new products.
The January 2025 event marked a key milestone in the transition that began last September. Originality, boldness, desirability and innovation: these four words sum up this year’s event.
The show hosted more than 96,000 visitors while 2,377 brands presented their collections, with nearly 30 per cent being new brands across all sectors. The range of products on offer has also become more diversified, with 60 per cent international representation.
“Aware of the challenges we’re facing, we were highly motivated and inspired to review all our practices to remain the best business partner in our industry, both locally and globally,” says Mélanie Leroy, general manager, SAFI (Maison&Objet, Paris Design Week and MOM).
“The success of this year’s show was reflected in the enthusiasm and optimism on display in the aisles. I’m very proud to see that professionals who want to grow their business were present at the show. We’re even more excited as we begin preparing for the September 2025 and January 2026 events.”
