Maison & Objet names designer of the year
Maison & Objet has named Tristan Auer, Artistic Director of Wilson Associates, as its designer of the year. Recognising his work across product and hotel design, the announcement comes ahead of Maison & Object Paris, which takes place at Paris Nord Villepinte from 8-12 September.
Auer’s style, one that combines opulence with personal details and memory, characterises properties around the world including Les Bains in Paris, and Cotton House Hotel in the Caribbean. Having worked under Christian Liaigre and Philippe Starck, Auer opened his own design studio in Paris in 2002, and now guides the artistic vision of an atelier-style division of Wilson Associates offering a more personal and intimate design approach within the international studio. His latest work – the interiors of the iconic Hôtel de Crillon – was unveiled in July following a five-year transformation.
“Maison & Objet is by far the premier design and decoration fair,” he explains. ”I know at Maison & Objet I’ll be able to find the partners and objects that I need, so it’s a key event for me.”
