Alcantara at Paris Deco Off 2018

The global ambassador for Italian excellence presents in Paris TARA “special collection” by #ingasempe and Alchimia:a creative melting pot of #interiordesign solutions.

For the #parisdecooff, #alcantara is back at the Galerie ArtCube in Saint Germain's Place de Furstemberg, right in the heart of the city, to present a creative melting pot of #interiordesign solutions. 

On the spotlight is TARA , the “special collection” created by French designer Inga Sempé which stands out for personality and an instantly recognisable #design: an iconic micro-motif that comes in three graphic variants and several new colours that have been added to the #alcantara ® palette.

For this occasion, the Galerie ArtCube is putting on an immersive display: TARA has invaded every inch of the walls, providing a patchwork backdrop that mixes different colours and patterns to draw the eye. The graphics also appear on the ceiling and floor, leaving a strong, almost disorientating impression.

During this exciting material journey #alcantara is accompanied by three top-class partners who are all key players in some of the main areas of applications for the material. 

At the heart of the display sits the Ruché sofa designed by #ingasempe for Ligne Roset, Alcantara’s main partner for the French market. Ruché, which takes its name from the wrinkled or folded fabric used for clothing, brings an unusual touch to the traditional, pairing a solid wooden structure with quilting, covered especially for the occasion with soft TARA

The stylish THE FRAME television from Samsung takes centre stage on the wall inside the gallery. Its dual role - transforming from an extraordinary TV when switched on, to a beautiful art when is off - perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the collection. And with the rest of the room also customised with TARA designs, the TV blends seamlessly into its surroundings by broadcasting repeated images of the collection’s graphic motif that draw the viewer in a hypnotic stare

An unexpected surprise awaits Deco Off visitors who venture into the #alcantara exhibition. In Place de Furstemberg right in front of Galerie ArtCube an elegant Ape Calessino Piaggio, synonymous of modernity and, in TARA.The collection customises, with a fresh and caressing touch, its seats, capote and doors, connoting the iconic vehicle that combines glamor and Italian style all over the world.

But that’s not all. As well as TARA, some of Alcantara’s best-selling colours and decorations will be on show in Paris in the latest new colour schemes.  

The most popular motifs from past collections, mixed with a new neutral colour palette, take pride of place alongside Inga Sempé's collection in a style composition that responds to a broad range of #interiordesign needs. It has given rise to Alchimia , a book that uses images specially created by illustrator Victor Cavazzoni to suggest several possible applications for the material, along with a selection of colour and style pairings.

From the bedroom to the living room, the office, and even the most classic contract space, Cavazzoni’s clean lines, sober colours, and skilful use of perspective and light sketch out scenes of daily life, highlighting the endless new challenges embraced by #alcantara ®, a material that lends itself to dressing any surface with character and soft comfort. The five illustrations are also being exhibited downstairs at the Galerie ArtCube in a discreet area used for interviews and business meetings.

For the passionate public of Deco Off made of #interiordesign lovers, a perfect chance to observe and draw inspiration from the wealth of possibilities that come with #alcantara ®, a creative melting pot of soft upholstery proposals and precious décor details.
