The third day of the international exhibition of decorMaison&Objet was unlike any other. We were able to complete the program to the maximum and visit everything we planned. And this, by the way, is twice as much as in the first two days. If you thought that the previous reports covered most of the exhibition, then this is not true at all. The area of the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre is almost 20,000 square meters, and the total territory is 115 hectares. The number of participants exceeds three thousand, and most of them are well-known and recognizable brands valued all over the world. In the first two days, we were able to go around only four halls out of eight, but, as it turned out, these were not such huge pavilions. Those that we planned to visit on Sunday could easily accommodate the entire military aviation of the host country. And there is really a lot of interesting stuff concentrated here. Pavilions 5, 6 and 7. Are you ready? Other reports from the exhibition: . . We enter the seventh hall, and our gaze immediately falls on the recognizable style and aesthetic design. This is perfection in its purest form – the home collection of Zaha Hadid, created by European masters in memory of the great architect. England, Zaha Hadid Design. Bravo!
