The ephemeral installation echoes elements of the minimalist architecture proposed by Willo Perron for the 2024 edition of MATTER and SHAPE, a new design salon presented inside the Jardin des Tuileries from March 1 – 4, 2024.

Aligned with MATTER and SHAPE’s values of contemporary design driven by material prowess and innovation, aesthetic harmony and utility, the chosen pieces propose a bold and artistic vision for modern living. From domestic and outdoor furniture to portable lighting and decorative objets d’art, strict tableaus placed throughout the villa’s ground floor juxtapose its opulent murals and fixtures, creating a call-and-repeat between the industrial and the handmade.

Framing a dynamic snapshot of the landscape of French design today, MATTER and SHAPE at the Villa Romaine features pieces from the realms of both commercial product and collectible design — reflecting the salons cross-disciplinary approach.
