What to expect at Maison&Objet 2026
With more than 2,300 exhibitors from across the globe, Maison&Objet once again confirms its position as a leading international platform for design and decoration.

A significant number of exhibitors are newcomers, bringing fresh perspectives and new creative voices to the Parisian stage.
The January 2026 edition is expected to welcome tens of thousands of professional visitors, including retailers, architects, interior designers, and hospitality professionals. In line with Maison&Objet's refined positioning, this edition places a strong focus on premium hospitality concepts, collectible design, and high-end home fashion, offering curated inspiration for both residential and contract markets.

Designing the future, rooted in the past
The Future Heritage theme reflects a growing movement within the design world: the desire to preserve identity and craftsmanship while embracing innovation. According to the organisers, the theme 'celebrates the intelligence of heritage while projecting it into new narratives, where sustainability, digital tools, and creative experimentation redefine traditional codes.'
Throughout the fair, visitors will encounter collections that reinterpret classic forms, revive artisanal techniques, and merge them with contemporary aesthetics. From furniture and lighting to textiles and decorative objects, the theme unfolds through immersive scenography and carefully curated trend areas.
Renowned trend forecasters and curators will once again guide visitors through the fair's highlights in the What's New spaces, offering insights into how heritage-inspired design is evolving across retail, decor, and hospitality. These installations promise to showcase a rich mix of tactile materials, refined craftsmanship, and visionary design concepts.
