LE RESERVOIR

LE RÉSERVOIR - A Collective Design Exhibition in Paris

January 13th-18th 2026

​

On the occasion of Déco Off Week, Roman interior designers Clementina Calleri, Claudia d’Oncieu and Virginia Pantanella present Le Réservoir, an exhibition bringing together a collective of contemporary designers sharing a common vision: to preserve and reinvent artisanal know-how in a constant dialogue between heritage and modernity.

 

Set in a Parisian gallery in the 3rd arrondissement, the exhibition unfolds like a lived-in home, where each space tells a story. Visitors are invited to explore, linger, and feel at home. At the entrance, Massimiliano Pipolo’s ceramics greet the audience alongside a large mirror in the main window, opening the view to a universe where material becomes poetry. Scattered throughout the space are also works by painter Charlie Masson, adding unexpected moments of discovery and enriching the visitor’s experience.

 

In the small living room, vintage objects reimagined by New Memories naturally mingle with paintings by Alighiero Boetti, in pictorial dialogue with his Senegalese painter friend Frédéric Bruly Bouabré, presented by art gallery EDDART, completing the intimate yet cosmopolitan atmosphere. The presence of books and magazines by Franco Maria Ricci further lends the space an iconic dimension, where editorial excellence interacts with decorative arts.

 

In the dining room, wooden furniture by Emanuele Pantanella Design, inspired by his drawings from the 1970s to the early 2000s, harmonises with table art pieces from Levant Shop, inspired by the Eastern Mediterranean, and works by Italian turner Stefano Longhini. The scene rests on a carefully selected Kilim rug, creating a subtle balance between textures and eras.

​

The gallery walls are fully covered with hand-printed linen fabrics by Rapture & Wright, enveloping the space in delicate patterns. Every surface becomes a living canvas, reminding us that textiles are also a language of creation.

Soft light from luminous totems designed by Paraná Studio welcomes visitors, crafting a warm and eclectic atmosphere, a sensitive balance between past and contemporary visions.

​

The represented designers work with artisans worldwide, from the UK to Italy and the Eastern Mediterranean, and all share a strong conviction: craftsmanship belongs fully to the present.

​

Under these impulses, this collective brings Le Réservoir to life, a living space where forms, materials, and techniques meet and renew themselves. By presenting these objects within a home-like setting, the three designers offer visitors an immersive, intimate, and warm experience, inviting them to inhabit the space rather than merely observe it.
