Wondernature - What's new? @Maison&Objet Paris
Reconnecting with our own deeper essence now involves an unprecedented alliance with the botanical world. Such is the observation made by François Delclaux, who has noticed that our biological environment is at the heart of contemporary concerns.
Les Habitants de La Forêt
The genesis of these sculptures is a dream in which anthropomorphic characters ride wild animals. From this poetic and fantastic vision were born Les Habitants de la Forêt, a series of several sculptures revisiting and enriching the universe of Les Grands Dodus. The Grands Dodus become mysterious and magical guardians of nature, living in perfect harmony with wild animals. Unique pieces and small series entirely modeled by hand.
Avocado Vase
Your love of avocados can thrive long after eating one; just save the seed, grow it and discover the extraordinary tree inside with the innovative Avocado Vase. We have refined the traditional method of growing, skipping the toothpicks, and utilizing the opening to cradle the seed keeping it dry as it sprouts and encouraging the roots to flourish freely. The sinuously shaped vase magnifies the roots as they prosper; creating a perfect focal point to witness the plant as it develops.
At peace with nature
Reconnecting with our own deeper essence now involves an unprecedented alliance with the botanical world. Such is the observation made by François Delclaux, who has noticed that our biological environment is at the heart of contemporary concerns. How should we be making things? How can we preserve life on Earth? These urgent questions, even now in our everyday lives, require us to reconcile historically opposing concepts such as the city and the countryside, nature and culture, heritage and modernity, or what’s natural and artificial. City-dwellers are redefining their relationship with all things natural. The need for green space and flowers is an essential part of our well-being. This awakening is leading to the search for a new sort of harmony within our interiors. Our living spaces are, of course, impacted by this quest, which takes on a poetic dimension and may become a source of wonder and joy. Wondernature. A new form of hedonism emerges from this call to consciousness. It’s simply enchanting!
