ArtSHINE proudly made its debut at Pattern Lab, a key sector of the renowned Maison & Objet trade show, marking an exciting milestone for our artists and surface designers. This prestigious event, held in Paris, is a global hub for design, innovation, and creativity, making it the perfect platform for ArtSHINE to showcase its vibrant and diverse design talent.
A New Opportunity for ArtSHINE Artists
Maison & Objet has long been recognized as one of the premier trade fairs in the world of interior design, home decor, and lifestyle products. The Pattern Lab section is dedicated to the latest trends in surface design, textiles, and pattern innovation, providing a unique space where brands, manufacturers, and designers come together to explore new possibilities.
For ArtSHINE, this was an opportunity to introduce our talented surface designers and artists to an international audience, demonstrating the potential of their work across multiple industries—from home furnishings to fashion and stationery. Our goal was to not only present exceptional designs but also to foster meaningful collaborations and licensing opportunities.

Showcasing Creativity and Innovation
At Pattern Lab, ArtSHINE’s exhibit featured a curated selection of bold, trend-driven, and timeless patterns, each telling a unique story through colour, form, and texture. The diversity of our artists’ work allowed us to engage with a broad audience, attracting the interest of buyers, manufacturers, and industry professionals seeking fresh and market-ready designs.
Visitors were able to explore hand-drawn patterns, digitally enhanced textures, and culturally inspired motifs, reflecting ArtSHINE’s mission to support independent artists and empower them to commercialize their creative passion. The response was overwhelmingly positive, with attendees appreciating the fusion of artistic expression and commercial viability that our artists bring to the table.
Connecting with Industry Leaders
Beyond showcasing designs, Maison & Objet provided a valuable opportunity for ArtSHINE to network with industry leaders, retailers, and buyers looking for exclusive pattern licensing collaborations. Engaging in discussions with manufacturers and designers, we explored ways to integrate ArtSHINE patterns into product lines, fashion collections, and home décor innovations.
This first-time participation also reinforced the importance of strategic positioning in the global market, as we connected with professionals eager to collaborate on projects that celebrate creativity while maintaining commercial relevance.
Looking Ahead
ArtSHINE’s first experience at Pattern Lab was an incredible success, paving the way for more international opportunities. The overwhelming response confirmed the demand for unique and high-quality surface designs, reinforcing our commitment to empowering artists and bringing their work to a wider audience.
Moving forward, ArtSHINE aims to continue participating in global trade fairs, expanding our reach in the world of licensing, textiles, and home decor. This milestone at Maison & Objet is just the beginning, and we look forward to many more inspiring journeys ahead!
