design matter and shape paris fair

Matter and Shape, a design salon held concurrently with Paris Fashion Week, returns for its third edition from March 6–9 at the Jardin des Tuileries. Curated by artistic director Dan Thawley and founder Matthieu Pinet, the fair transforms two pavilions into a temporary city of objects, featuring collectible design, practical luxury, and emerging studios. This year's theme, “scale,” prompts visitors to consider both micro craft gestures and macro production systems, with a focus on ethical and sustainable practices. Exhibitors include Lindsey Adelman Studio, a reading room with Villa Hegra, a collaboration with Byredo, and the return of the Zara Home x Dreamin’ Man café, alongside a new restaurant concept from Balbosté.
