24th-28th March 2022 - Paris, France

 Mira tables, MAISON DADA



Unbridled desire and unbounded imagination! Such is the direction in which the brazenly buoyant luxury sector is heading, exploring new paths that draw on haute-couture artisan craftsmanship and high technology on the one hand, and pop culture and the values of inclusivity on the other. This new phenomenon has served as inspiration for the upcoming edition of Maison&Objet that proposes its two various creative iterations: “Uber Luxury” and “Lux Populis”.

“When people come to Paris, it is to tap into an expertise and this one-of-a-kind lifestyle, which can be found nowhere else, in uncertain times, people feel the need for something different, the need for emotions and experiences, the need to push fantasy to its limits.”

Philippe Brocart, the trade fair’s General Manager

All that’s precious, prodigious, outstanding! Uber luxury marks a marriage between fine crafts and new technology, with the latter relentlessly enhancing the artistic dexterity of the hand, giving rise to a form of luxury that has one foot rooted in the past and the other firmly in the future, where beauty has no limits.
In the increasingly visionary design world, designers are developing materials hand-in-hand with physicists, incorporating threads of silk, copper and LED into fabrics, whilst settees are morphing from simple seats into fully connected objects. What’s more, the waiting lists are growing ever-longer for these exclusive objects of desire.

Lux Populis: “Pop Culture and Pop’litical”. It is with these two words that Vincent Grégoire sums up this new luxury trend that draws inspiration from the world of street culture, driven by a generation raised on a diet of reality TV, Instagram, TikTok and gaming. It is a trend that, at times, sees luxury being imbued with a retro vibe: watchmaker Tag Heuer has, indeed, joined forces with Super Mario for a limited edition piece; Gucci has dreamed up a capsule collection featuring manga character Doraemon; and Leblon Delienne has revamped Mickey Mouse.
