The Memphis Style decorates the Maison & Objet 2019 in Paris


Stop everything, Maison & Objet 2019 welcomes us to the new eighties. A very millennial eighties decade.

If design and interior decoration is about, Maison & Objet has become the international authority.

Throughout time, the city of light has positioned itself as a benchmark for art and industrial design.

Also, as a guide for architecture and lifestyle.

Fashion and design in furniture continues to be a form of everyday expression in which people live and interact constantly.

Maison & Objet 2019 surprises with its innovative proposal: the Memphis Style is back.

The fair of furniture and the gift of Paris has been flooded with bright colors and trapezoid geometries.

And it is that the eighties never left and Maison & Objet 2019 shows that beauty is never forgotten.

Despite being reinterpreted, the most colorful period of this decade covers the halls of this exhibition.

Esilo Memphis

 

The Memphis Style was inspired by the geometric shapes of Art Deco, Pop Art and Kitch.

It is the most opposite to minimalism. That minimalism that we have become so accustomed to today.

It is a philosophy far from the sober and rationalist patterns that dominated much of the twentieth century.

Its maximum exponent was Ettore Sottsass, founder of the collective in the 1981 year.

Through colorful, squeaky and extreme proposals, these designers shaked the foundations of good taste.

As if that were not enough, they boldly posed all sorts of questions about the mission of contemporary design.

"A table may need four legs to work, but nobody says the four have to be the same", he came to say Sottsass.

Here we show you some of the artists that exhibit their designs at the Maison & Objet 2019.

Magic Circus Editions

 

Another new brand that gives a lot to talk about. Founded in 2015 by Marie-Lise Féry, a free-spirited antiquarian.

Among its main proposals are spherical lamps inspired by the world of cabaret and circus magic.

In addition, it fuses round shapes and adds golden details.

Féry is faithful to Art Deco, it is the main feature of his house.

Maison Dada

 

Founded in Shanghai by the French Thomas Dariel and Delphine Moreau. They are a young brand with only four years of life.

They have two showrooms; one in China and one in Paris.

As its name indicates, Dadaism is the central axis of the brand.

They consider that this artistic movement is the cornerstone not only of contemporary design, but also of today's society.

They design furniture, lighting, carpets and accessories. Your creative freedom is your main source of inspiration and enjoyment.

Octaevo

 

With Octaevo, it is easy to give yourself small luxuries on a daily basis. Decorate your desk or workplace with your stationery items.

This brand has turned ordinary elements as bookmarks or matches to turn them into objects of desire.

One of the most outstanding sensations of Octaevo is the stand in Paris composed with an intense blue stand designed by Isern Serra and Sylvain Carlet.

They even play with the patterns of their vases, reminding us of all the work of the Memphis collective.
