Trade shows in the interior sphere are the perfect place to get inspired, and we can\u2019t resist fully immersing ourselves in the experience whenever the opportunity arises. Maison et Objet holds a special place in our hearts, and always leaves us with the desire to share our observations. Below, we do just that\u2026<\/p>\n

Specifications for residential furnishings are changing<\/h3>\n

At the end of last year we started a project in Kuwait. With this majestic undertaking came the need to search for new brands and product types, such as accessories \u2013 something we hadn\u2019t previously explored to its full potential. At Maison et Objet, we were able to journey through new and previously un-thought of accessories, highlighting the fact that specifications and needs in the residential arena are ever changing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1873″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224073978{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1863″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224084289{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1868″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224134145{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1517072400953{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Brass and marble are enjoying the spotlight this year<\/h3>\n

Maison et Objet is a fantastic opportunity for brands to launch new products and designs. We spent many hours exploring these pieces \u2013 with a particular focus on Portuguese high-end craftsmanship design pieces and brands, as we were sourcing new luxury collections for the Kassavello portfolio \u2013 and in doing so concluded that brass and marble are the en vogue materials for interiors in 2018. \u00a0The intricacy of furniture handles on display also came as a surprise, with many hinting at luxury in an accessory that is often kept simple, or else completely ignored.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1878″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224062867{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1866″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224560625{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}” link=”https:\/\/www.kassavello.com\/products\/brand\/duistt”][vc_single_image image=”1871″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224055154{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1857″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224029272{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}” link=”https:\/\/www.kassavello.com\/products\/brand\/brabbu”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1517072407490{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Outdoor furniture is becoming more design-led<\/h3>\n

Accessible, high quality outdoor furniture \u2013 Portuguese or otherwise – has always been rather scarce. With new projects specifying a need for beautiful exteriors to match a stunning interior, we knew it was important to pay attention to this design element when exploring Maison et Objet. We weren\u2019t disappointed \u2013 the show was the perfect place to find interesting new ranges, and to ignite hope within us that outdoor furniture is on its way to a thoroughly stylish revival.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1851″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224164142{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1517072413373{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Portuguese brands are evolving in the marketplace<\/h3>\n

In the last few years, we have noticed an increasingly fast paced evolution on the part of Portuguese design houses. A prime example of this came by the way of The Covet Group, who created two new brands for this year\u2019s Maison et Objet \u2013 Rug Society and Pullcast[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1880″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224211317{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1879″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224224585{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1517072423971{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]At Kassavello, we champion Portuguese design, and couldn\u2019t be happier with this progression. We look forward to seeing how Portuguese design brands continue to develop, and to thrive in the coming year.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1881″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224260546{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1869″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224279385{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1878″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1517224513071{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
