Three days left before Maison&Objet starts, and three must-see spots:
Tom Dixon’s cabinet of curiosities
Tom Dixon and his prolific studio present new pieces inspired by a new interpretation of British heritage. Tank vase combines generous proportions with glass and hand-painted copper detailing. The Cube and Trove accessory collections bring a touch of sophistication and glamour to the office, a space treated in the manner of a new cabinet of curiosities that take its design cues from industrial minimalism. Also worth looking out for is the copper Cog pen.
