Earlier this month, at Paris Design Week and its concurrent shows, we were especially drawn toward work that explores material richness and depth — the use of upholstery to add dimensionality, tactility, and coziness, as well as furniture that highlights the grain and various textures of wood. Attention to detail is seasonless but there’s something about the change in the air, the way autumnal light shifts your perspective and what it attunes you to. Below, 11 of our favorite designers, launches, collars, and more from the week.

Yves Salomon x Chapo Création

French fashion house Yves Salomon, with Chapo Création, has “dressed up” five of Pierre Chapo’s most storied wooden pieces in scraps of recycled shearling. The 1963 L01 Bed, designed for Samuel Beckett and as minimal as some of his later literary works, becomes a textured daybed. Chapo’s 1966 S11 chair, celebrated for its joinery, gets a new look in shearling intarsia, which also graces the D19 Balance arm lamp. A fuzzy top adds even more dimension to the S31 ottoman, from 1974, whose three diagonal legs appear to be twisting. And when the leather seat, back, and armrests of Chapo’s S10 armchair, also known as the Sahara, one of the first collapsible pieces of furniture, are replaced with thick textiles, the chair takes on a different personality.

Léa Zeroil

Vines, waves, the sun — these natural elements, with their cyclical qualities, make their way into the Solstice collection, Léa Zeroil’s collaboration with French design platform Modern Metier. As the name suggests, these pieces evoke seasonal change, recurrence, and a bit of mysticism. The steel, brass, or aluminum frames of Zeroil’s mirrors almost seem to move with the serpentine motifs she often returns to. A carved-leg, upholstered chair is a balance of stillness and movement, while wall and pendant lights give off a celestial glow.

Garnier & Linker

Parisian lighting and furniture brand Garnier & Linker, helmed by Guillaume Garnier and Florent Linker, unveiled Tara, their first collection of cast aluminum seating. A swivel or fixed chair, in raw, brushed, or polished finishes, has a monolithic feel. It’s accompanied by a series of stools with aluminum bases and seats of oak or walnut. On display at their studio through October 15.

Alain Gilles

The Illusion collection by Belgian-born designer Alain Gilles for Glass Variations combines crystalline precision with optical ambiguity. Gilles’ console tables and a desk are made entirely of glass and based on deceptively simple geometry: intersecting and overlapping lines, semi- and quarter-circles. The base of each piece is composed of two layers of glass, one colored or textured, one clear — while the clear layer provides the support, it looks as though it’s all resting or floating, impossibly, on an arch. The glass is available in transparent or frosted finishes, tinted or clear.

Fleur Delasalle

French interior designer Fleur Delesalle has a knack for making coherence out of contrasts. Pieces that are bold, patterned, and graphic play nicely with neutral tones; softer organic forms work beautifully with those that are sharp in their geometry; the matte finish of the Et floor lamp and the textured Metaphores fabric on the elongated, curving version of Delesalle’s hug sofa provide a balance to the high gloss of the Nemesis and Athena side tables. Her latest collection, Odeon, also includes the abstracted forms of the Clover coffee table and a jewel-toned rug.

Frédéric Pellenq

At the Paris gallery Kolkhoze, the second solo show of French designer Frédéric Pellenq features a series of seven wooden sculptures made of old oak, and collectible furniture like the angled, blocky-yet-elegant Tourenne armchairs and sofa, the Kelly bench, the freeform Oiseau coffee table, and a candelabra topped with four crescent moons – all staged in an inviting living room scenario. On view until October 15.

Atelier Jonathan Cohen

Designer and cabinetmaker Jonathan Cohen debuted new pieces incorporating his love of geometric shapes and his signature dye treatment that brings out the grain of wood: a buffet bar, with a solid, dyed black ash frame and compartment in hazelnut and red, outfitted with chrome plated stainless steel hardware, along with two solid ash and oak poufs with armrests – one that combines black and hazelnut shades with an animal print wool fabric from Metaphores and slick black vinyl, and another with red vinyl and an upholstered seat.

Dorothée Delaye

The sun and the sea, specifically the idea of a Mediterranean cottage at golden hour, inspired interior designer Dorothée Delaye’s new furniture collection. The five pieces each bear the name of a wind: the Zephyr sofa, the Levant coffee table, which references coral reefs and the sea floor through wood marquetry and glazed ceramics, the Libeccio ottoman, the Bise chair upholstered with Elitis fabric, and the Meltem outdoor table with lava stone top and accompanying chair. Solar and marine motifs abound through color and shape.

Marion Stora

Seven new works from Parisian Marion Stora, presented at the Invisible Collection gallery, comprise the second part of a series Stora released at the start of the year. Le Baiser, a bed defined by a curving headboard embroidered with a pair of lovers in profile, was inspired by Jean Cocteau. Room screens create both intimacy and openness, especially one made of copper plates threaded through woven ribbons. Like a kiss or an embrace, ceramic and wood coffee and side tables, a desk, and an arm chair mix materials and forms and embody the collection’s name: Making Out.

Project 213A

At the Arrogant Verneuil gallery, Project 213A showcased a selection of pieces, including their Portugal chairs, eight carved throne-like seats made of solid walnut. Like a cast of engaging characters, these sculptural objects offer much more than just a spot to sit.

Good Selection

Paris-based designer Lucas Zito hosted an exhibition of 28 emerging international designers in his own workshop, a space that used to be a metalworking factory. Good Selection – a very aptly titled show – was divided into three realms: residential, commercial, and hospitality. Tables, chairs, mirrors, shelving, objects, tableware, and lighting mingled with Zito’s own Buoy series of lamps.
