Louis Vuitton Celebrates 10 Years of Its Objets Nomades Collection at Salone del Mobile

For the tenth anniversary of Objets Nomades, French Maison Louis Vuitton brings the new lifestyle collections to the stage of this year’s Salone del Mobile at Garage Traversi.

This year, Louis Vuitton Objets Nomades collection turns 10. Born in 2012, the line dedicated to lifestyle and home offers a limited edition in collaboration with world-famous designers like Atelier Biagetti, Barber & Osgerby, Campana Brothers, India Mahdavi, Patricia Urquiola, and Raw Edges, to name a few.

The new objects will be the protagonists in the Garage Traversi space for the fifth edition of the exhibition to celebrate 10 years of the Louis Vuitton Objets Nomades collection in Milan during this year’s Salone del Mobile a.k.a. Milan Design Week

Showcased at Garage Traversi, the furniture and objects exhibition features pieces by 14 designers over a decade. Including over 60 pieces, the collection blends the respective designer’s creativity with Louis Vuitton’s ‘Art of Travel’ philosophy. From a parakeet green sculptural couch to outdoor tables and more, the collection is complete with every item thinkable to elevate one’s home.

Additionally, the Milan exhibition unveils five new pieces. Atelier Oï reveals the Belt Lounge Chair, Belt Bar Stool and Belt Side Stool. The Campana Brothers introduce a new four-seater version of their Bomboca modular sofa. Completing the new pieces is the Cosmic Table by Raw Edges.

Furthermore, the French luxury brand is showcasing the Nova House by architects Michel Hudrisier and M. Roma for Studio Rochel. A testament to nomadic architecture, the ‘living pod’ was designed in 1972 and boasts an aluminum-alloy strip-covered steel frame with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom.

The Louis Vuitton Objets Nomades collection and Nova House are on display now until Sunday, June 12, at the Garage Traversi in Via Bagutta 2 in Milan. Come into the beautiful world of Louis Vuitton.

Lalique Mossi scented candle in crystal vase

Based on original designs by the legendary Rene Lalique, the Mossi crystal collection is a luxury series of handcrafted lead crystal vases, scented candle vases & votives. The iconic Lalique satin finish contrasts with the gleaming over-sized cabochon-like bubbles that pick up the light and reflect it for a kaleidoscope effect.

The Mossi Scented Candle Vase by Lalique is a modern, a 11.5 cm high, finely detailed crystal home decor accessory covered in shiny gem-like marbles on a satin-finished surface. Its estimated burn time is 40-50 hours. Once the candle burns out, the container transforms into a statement home accent.

The Lalique Mossi Scented Candle Vase is available at Lalique boutiques and selected stores worldwide. Come into the beautiful world of Lalique.

A sculpture that is sure to bring style to any home

The Green Languedoc Vase by Lalique is a re-issue of a vase originally created by the prolific Rene Lalique. The lush vegetation found in the southern part of France inspired the vase, but in the structure of the vase you can also see the quilted look so prevalent in the designs of Coco Chanel. So this is more than a vase, more a piece of art, a sculpture that is sure to bring style to any home.

The Lalique Green Languedoc Vase is available several sizes and colors at Lalique boutiques and selected stores worldwide. Come into the beautiful world of Lalique.
