To celebrate his 95th birthday, Leroy Merlin has, for the first time, invited the designer Philippe Nigro to explore the brand's vast product range by staging a temporary gallery at Le Marais. Drawing his inspiration from the ‘ready-made' artistic movement, he will share with us his vision of Leroy Merlin's new products in a staged presentation highlighting the beauty of the tool and the raw material, playing on the aesthetics so typical of large DIY stores. More than just a place, this Design Moments event will, without a doubt, be an experience to be enjoyed throughout the week thanks to a lively and varied programme punctuated by daily conferences, workshops, deco moments and DIY sessions, etc.

Following FAIRE 2017, which was devoted to architectural experimentation, this new season of the program FAIRE seeks to disrupt the current system for producing urban objects by accelerating and financing a small series of prototypes selected by a jury of experts based on the vision, values, and solutions proposed in the projects. Out of 261 projects submitted by designers, architects, collectives, startups, well-known designers, and design school students, the jury, composed of a large panel of experts and presided over by Jean-Louis Missika, selected 12 finalists. From rocks sculpted from stone from the Ile de France to multi-support furniture with plant protection, a climate bank that uses air from quarries, a façade water tank, a cooling vent, an unusual installation for children, research and experiments on cycling habits, metropolitan signage to make Grand Paris a part of Paris, FAIRE is accelerating 12 projects that explore and question usages of and strategies for public space in Paris.
