15 Must-Visit Flagship Stores in Paris

Interiors occupy a central place in everyday life. Furniture, interior decoration, tableware and textiles—various sectors of the art of living—are investing in new spaces across the capital. (Re)openings set the rhythm of 2025 with energy. Whatever the architectural concept, showroom, flagship, concept store or gallery, all share the ambition of creating a privileged, sensory and immersive experience.

Maison de Vacances opens its city apartment

The historic showroom of Maison de Vacances is a benchmark address neighboring the furniture publishers of the Right Bank. To mark the brand’s thirtieth anniversary, it has expanded boldly, unveiling an atypical concept named L’Appartement particulier. Founders Emmanuelle Fouks and Nicolas Mauria did not push back the walls but transformed storage and logistics spaces instead. The metamorphosis is total, and the décor warmly eclectic. Creations and curated pieces combine in an elegant painted setting, in Ressource colours, between Versailles parquet flooring and coffered ceilings. Maison de Vacances also lends itself to an urban escape, the duo emphasises. “We want to create a place of inspiration so that everyone can invent their own home while giving more space to our collections.” A successful bet. Outdoor products and furniture blend harmoniously with interior fabrics in an exclusive color palette.

 A dazzling moment Lalique

The flagship adjoining Place de la Concorde has been given a makeover, ninety years after René Laliquearrived on Rue Royale. Its transformation into a warm residential spirit echoes Lalique’s most recent developments in New York and Seoul in 2025. Marc Larminaux, the brand’s artistic director, is behind the new retail concept. “It is meant to unfold,” he says. “Materials enhance the setting. It reflects the inspiration of nature that inhabited René Lalique”. The language adopted is resolutely contemporary. Crystal dialogues with walnut wood, brass, terrazzo and quartzite, across the various areas dedicated to decorative objects, tableware, jewellery and fragrances. The flagship of French crystal craftsmanship extends its artistic vision to the winter garden, intimate and refined, where interior architecture projects in full expansion take shape.

 The new felted setting of Mushkane

The word “smile” in Nepali is a promise of welcoming softness. This is exactly what characterizes the new Mushkane refuge in the Marais, near the Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers. Founded at the turn of the millennium, the brand has remained faithful to its values of ethics and authentic handcraft. Wool felt is, by nature, soothing and protective. It brings the soul of Nepal into the heart of Paris. It is expressed through a wide range of decorative objects in subtle hues, soft and durable. Mushkane’s enlarged, luminous décor pays tribute to nature. Between stone walls and raw wood, a rug bar or a kids’ corner, the brand introduces organic design into interior decoration.

 Diacasan under the sign of blue

The street-facing façade immediately catches the eye. Its intense blue extends all the way to the back of Diacasan’s second address in the capital. Sandrine Dumas, founder and artistic director, chose to establish her high-end rugs in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, “the epicenter of textile publishers, furniture makers and decorators”. The rug expert now integrates them into a more global decorative ensemble. The creators surrounding her—painters, photographers, engravers and designers—shape Diacasan’s strong identity. Collaboration with the agency Messieurs continues. After the Grand Nord series, which introduced initial seating pieces, the agency delivers a modular, warm and immersive concept. “The blue experience highlights the house’s creations in a fluid environment”. Rugs can notably be fixed at will onto cleverly perforated walls.

 Maison Leleu perpetuates Art Deco

The eponymous brand founded by decorator Jules Leleu is inseparable from Art Deco. His great-granddaughter Alexia relaunched it in 2018, giving it renewed momentum. Reinterpretations of the archives coexist harmoniously with contemporary furniture, lighting and rug creations. The appointment-only showroom opened its doors on the occasion of Design Miami Paris. Alexia conceived this felted setting in the heart of Saint-Germain as a manifesto apartment—intimate yet evolving. “Our worlds come to life through creative scenographies expressing Leleu’s standards and bespoke approach,” she explains. The first carte blanche, bringing together art, craftsmanship and design, was entrusted to the nomadic gallery Serieye.

Anne de Solène reinvents itself

Opened on Rue du Bac in the late 2000s, the Anne de Solène boutique has been completely renovated. Its transformation was entrusted to the agency Label Expérience. The décor evokes a « bubble of softness ». It harmoniously combines a natural palette, curved wooden furniture and airy suspensions above a light concrete floor. The ensemble is elegant, the atmosphere serene. As the centerpiece, the bed occupies the centre, elevated by a fully draped textile canopy. The Drouault corner is placed nearby. Pillows and duvets, crafted at the Le Mans manufactory, are aligned with minimal restraint. A wall-mounted color chart, called the Showroom, invites customers to harmonize bed and bath linens, plain or printed, across the 36 available shades. The space beautifully inaugurates the textile specialist’s 120th anniversary.

Source Edition at the origins of mid-century design

A few months after its launch in Milan during the Salone del Mobile, Source Edition set up in Paris, just steps from Place des Victoires. Isabelle de Ponfilly and her daughter Joséphine Buraschi founded Source Edition to revive forgotten designers of the 1950s–1970s. The duo’s showroom invites visitors to rediscover André Monpoix, Turenne Chevallereau, Giuseppe Rivadossi, Ben Swildens, Claude Courtecuisse… Their furniture, objects and lighting—little known or never produced—are handcrafted in France and Italy. The reissues are displayed in the intimate setting of the Parisian gallery.

African touch signed Timuntu

Barely launched, Timuntu opens its concept store dedicated to African art de vivre. Interior architect and decorator Aline Matsika designed a warm space blending design, art and fashion. With her two sisters Inèsand Marcelle, she aims « to show that African craftsmanship fully belongs in contemporary interiors ». Carefully curated selections by the trio, originally from Congo-Brazzaville, draw on heritage while embracing modernity. Decorative pieces, accessories, tableware and small furniture combine authenticity and restraint while celebrating highly diverse know-how: blown glass, weaving, raffia, ceramics… Aline Matsika also presents a first collection of lighting and seating that bridges Africa and the West.

La Chance favours exchange

Louise Breguet and Jean-Baptiste Souletie are behind La Chance, a furniture publishing house founded in the early 2010s. A sculptural aesthetic carried by talented designers and artisanal expertise has built a highly sought-after furniture repertoire. The new gallery, located in the Louvre district, is an exhibition space, but not only… Custom design is its guiding principle. The hybrid space also brings together a creative workshop to develop pieces in collaboration with designers, as well as a meeting room/material library for exploring interior architecture projects. La Chance notably presents the Contract brand it has developed, Mouvement.

Back to basics for Boccara Paris

The international gallery specializing in ancient and modern tapestry began in the 1990s at the Louvre des Antiquaires opposite the Louvre. Didier Marien has directed it for over thirty years, making it a global reference in the textile art market. Having established himself in New York at the turn of the millennium, he now returns to the capital to highlight, in particular, modern and contemporary tapestries by French artists. “I want to reaffirm tapestry as a living art, fully engaged in the dialogue between heritage and contemporary creation,” declares the gallerist, faithful to his roots near Aubusson. The Véro-Dodat gallery, with its neo-classical architecture, now elegantly hosts Boccara.

La Romaine Editions between tradition and modernity

Pauline Vincent has always been attached to the art of living and everyday objects. This is the credo of La Romaine Editions Paris, which she founded in 2021. Four years later, she opens her first Parisian storefront, human-scaled, opposite the Italian Embassy. She brings together poetic, colorful and playful collections, all born in carefully selected artisan workshops. While tableware and glassware take pride of place, La Romaine Editions also offers lighting, candlesticks, vases and small furniture. Carefully composed displays combine forms and colors and are regularly refreshed.

Serge Lesage changes scenery

The forty-year-old French brand, born in northern France, is a reference in high-end contemporary rugs. The arrival of Christophe Verley marks a new stage in its history. Under his leadership, Serge Lesage left Boulevard Raspail to establish its Left Bank showroom on Rue Bonaparte. The pared-down atmosphere borrows from the art gallery, where rugs are displayed like artworks. Emphasis is placed on materials and on the various manual techniques of weaving, knotting and tufting.

The Casa Lema dynamic

A leading player in Italian design, Lema is in full expansion. The fourth generation of the Meroni family strengthens its global development, as evidenced by the new Parisian showroom. For its opening, Lema partnered with furniture distributor My Design. Five vast bay windows facing the Seine reveal, in transparency, an elegant, functional and welcoming living space. The journey flows from living room to office, dining room and bedroom with dressing area. White walls and tobacco-oak parquet underscore the sophisticated minimalism emblematic of Lema. The brand, which entrusted its artistic direction to A++, presents its full furniture range, including the many modular and customizable solutions for which Lema is renowned.

Scented effluves at Ooumm

The Parisian house of Maria Royo now welcomes visitors by appointment just steps from Les Invalides. For ten years, Ooumm has woven links between interior fragrance and exclusive diffuser objects. The founder has surrounded herself with the right talents to create customizable interior accessories with sculptural forms. Alongside perfumer Barnabé Fillion, Jérôme Aumont directs the artistic creation of handcrafted collections made of marble, ceramic and brass… Dan Yeffet is among the designers working for Ooumm. Designed by Christophe Delcourt and Guillaume Terver, the showroom stages art and design.

Tikamoon champions responsible wood

The brand has moved from Place des Victoires to Avenue de l’Opéra, one of the liveliest arteries in central Paris. Born digital in 2008, it now relies on its network of physical stores to strengthen development and connect with customers. “Our clients need to see and touch the products,” says Arnaud Vanpoperinghe, CEO and co-founder of Tikamoon. The traceability of solid wood is a key argument for its sustainable furniture. At the entrance, a monumental sculpture bears witness—a true manifesto of Tikamoon’s commitment to eco-responsibility. The tree by cabinetmaker Mathieu Brosset is composed of more than 17,000 wood offcuts from the Illois circular workshop. “Its totemic form sacralizes carbon capture », adds the executive.
