The inspiration was the Grand Palais itself, specifically its sweeping Art Nouveau ornaments, rich in organic forms and allusions to nature. The booth concept is rooted in the spirit of spring: fresh, vibrant, and alive with a sense of renewal. Ingrao’s design evokes the sensation of blooming gardens under breezy clouds, creating an ethereal, almost heavenly atmosphere that harmonizes with historic architecture while introducing a modern, dreamlike energy.
The booth itself features a curated collection of bespoke elements: a sculptural bar, refined screens, a game table, a set of armchairs, a loveseat, a singular coffee table, and elegant flower-shaped pendant lights. Mural panels, richly textured and artfully composed, reinforce the naturalistic theme, blending imagery of blossoms and atmospheric vistas. Each piece contributes to a cohesive narrative of excellence, craftsmanship, and timeless beauty.
Through this collaboration, Ingrao and Par Excellence reaffirm the enduring vitality of French decorative arts, presenting a vision that is both profoundly rooted in history and fearlessly attuned to the future.
