Style and Substance – Paris Design Week

On the calendar of unmissable events in Paris, the week of September 9-15 has its own reserved spot. Everybody is back from their congés, refreshed, tanned and detoxed, and ready to exercise some of that unique brand of Parisian élan.

Paris Design Week is naturally an important event for the architecture and design trade, to network and display their ideas, but the event also attracts the general public as there’s lot’s to see … and eat and drink.

If you’re looking to buy or renovate a property in France, a visit to Paris design week can give you an enormous boost of inspiration. Even if the ideas presented are out of your budget, you can use them as a springboard to adapt it to your own taste and requirements.

Imagined as an itinerary—free-ranging and free of charge—sprinkled with exhibits and festive parties organized each night of the week, aimed at design lovers and the French and international trade who will be in Paris of the MAISON OBJET show.

There’s furniture, decoration, fashion, gastronomy, art, and the art of living under the banner of design, all the paths to creation intersect in the very place they emerged, showrooms, concept stores, designers’ workshops, galleries, cultural institutions, hotels and restaurants.

Over 180 spaces join forces to offer an accessible, broad-based view of design.
