Decorating Ideas: PACHAMAMA | DOMESTIC
Decorating and design ideas from the Maison & Objet exhibitions and other references I’ve been receiving. It’s not easy listing everything down but it’s necessary because I always end up trying to remember something fantastic I want to recommend to people and advise them to consider using.On the 14th of December, there’s an invitation for me to review the Arts Décoratifs which is connected to Maison & Objet. It’s going to be very interesting to see what this will bring out as I’m going to be heading back for Hong Kong for work and I’d love to carry new ideas always with me.



PACHAMAMA: “… means Mother Earth in the Quechua language. She was a divinity venerated by the Incas and by other inhabitants of the Andean Plateau such as the Aymara and the Quechua. She is the goddess of the earth, agriculture and fertility.”

DOMESTIC: “Launched by Stéphane Arriubergé, Christine Montard and Massimiliano Iorio in 2005, Domestic creates collections of articles devised by designers, graphic artists or artists around innovative and original concepts and themes. All these articles have the particular feature of offering the end user the freedom of participating in the design process.
Launched in September 2005, the collection “Vynil, an alternative to wallpaper”, literally passes into the hands of the end users, who, invited to transform their interiors into an area where they can express themselves, become the creators of their own setting.
Thanks to Vynil, the “wall space” becomes the field for a game of composition and narration into which a lot of effort and inventiveness can be put. Beyond its practical interest (no need for paste or a papering table), the Vynil collection makes it possible to think again about the place and the role of ornaments and decoration in our interiors.
