Deirdre Dyson’s 2020 Looking Glass collection Previews at Maison & Objet Paris

Lady Deirdre Dyson’s themed collection for 2020 will be unveiled at the prestigious Maison et Objet interiors exhibition on Stand B100, Hall 8. Inspired by the act of looking at and through glass, ‘Looking Glass’ consists of eight carpet designs, including ‘Transparent’, a reinterpretation of decorative shapes on a coloured vase and ‘Light Between’, a play on contrasting monochrome grading with the illusion of light. ‘Slivers’, which stems from a series of small flat discs of overlapping glass, combines 33 colours in wool and silk while ‘Looking Through’ began as a painting of the distortions seen through a water-filled flask against the real shapes behind. This new collection will be on show in the Deirdre Dyson Gallery on London’s King’s Road (554 King’s Road, SW6 2DZ) from February.

As always, Cavalli uses striking animal patterns, both detailed and abstracted, in bold monochromes and sumptuous golds, greens and reds.

Oxley’s Furniture launch new design range, Scroll

The first presentation of Scroll will be on display at Oxley’s exhibit on Stand B11, Hall 7. Scroll is inspired by the carvings left on stonework by the ancient Celts of the British islands. The carvings on their monuments are enormously varied but many include the Celtish knot; an interlocking weave that has been incorporated in objects since the dark ages. Oxley’s have coupled this ancient design on the table tops to the sensuous flowing lines of the chair to create a range of elegant outdoor furniture.

Simon Hudson, Managing Director said "The Scroll design represents the interweaving of two Oxley’s fundamentals, our British heritage and our ability to use recycled aluminium to create intricate, timeless and beautiful outdoor furniture. As with everything we make, it is the reuse of a resource to produce our unique designs that makes them so special".

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, MAISON&OBJET has decided to fix its eyes firmly on the future and explore the new trends in consumer behaviour being driven by generations Y and Z. The self-evident theme, "(RE) GENERATION", will run throughout 2020. Setting out to analyse the attitudes, desires and expectations of Generation who are digital natives, the whole year’s celebrations will be devoted to these committed millennials who are looking for a better world, changing the rules and revolutionising consumer behaviour in both the home and lifestyle sectors.

The January's edition will decipher the desires and expectations of an "engaged generation" that has grown up in a world of crisis affecting the economy, the environment, identities, migration; whilst the September fair will rutn the spotlight on what the "augmented generation" wants - a generation rasied on a diet of social media and the Internet.

An Engaged Generation

"Faced with multiple global crises, today's twenty- and thirty-somethings are keen to pull together to change the world..." explains Vincent Grégoire, trend hunter at NellyRodi. "It is a generation that is deeply concerned about making a meaningful difference, which in itself is injecting new values into everyone's way of living." These well-informed consumers dream of getting back to nature, adopting vegan materials, bringing the outdoors in. Led by ethics, they advocate fair, responsible and virtuous trade.

In a similar vein, these community-minded individuals champion small regional productions and return to handcrafted wares that are underpinned by solig social and human foundations. With sustainability being another factor that tops their priority list, this engaged generation also flies the flag for exchanging items and buying second hand; turning upcycling into a veritable lifestyle.

An Augmented Generation

"Hooked up to the internet on a drip feed, what this Wi-Fi generation also wants is a smoother and easier relationship with consumption. They want to try things out, voice their opinions and use the web as a source of inspiration", adds Grégoire when describging the continually connected Millennials. Constantly primed to spot new talent on Instagram and always receptive to the latest high-tech gadget, the tastes they develop are measured against the yardstick of digital aesthetics.

Their mantra? Being cool. An attitude that goes hand-in-hand with a quest for well-being. This point of view embraces the charm of soft beds and squishy sofas as the ultimate cacoons for a spot of cosy surfing. Aficionados of all the customisation options the World Wide Web brings, they go wild for the feel of good messages that are splashed across cushions, and their avid passion for viewing or creating tutorials of every kind elevates them to the realms of DIY enthusiasts.

Designer, Ramy Fishler, who has always been one step ahead of this time, will be creating an XL installation at MAISON&OBJET to illustrate these new trends in consumer behaviour. The theme will also be presented in the What's New exhibition areas with a selection of new products curated by Elizabeth Leriche, François Bernard and François Delclaux.

Craig & Rose celebrate the launch of 11 new shades with special colour installation, Colour Way

Craig & Rose marks its evolution from one of the UK’s oldest luxury paint manufacturers to paint protagonists by way of a special colour installation for the 2019 edition of the London Design Fair.
