While walking the streets of Paris one cold January day, I came across the window of a Hermes boutique. The window housed a fantastical scene of a wedding with lots of Brides and Grooms dressed in beautiful clothes and covered with flowers. When I came closer I realized that it looked more like a murder scene then a wedding (some of the brides had their head missing, some lost a hand or a leg).
It wasn't the first time that I saw that combination: using murder scenes to introduce design objects or creating worlds that are fantastic and absurd at the same time.
Unfortunately, I do not have images of that specific window to show you but here are some pictures of the trends in Paris – Maison & Objet that used humor to show fantastic and absurd world. The Theme of the trends this year was Onirique – Dreamy. It seems like escaping reality is what everybody is offering now.
