One of the highlights of the Maison & Objet show is the collection curated by VIA (Valorization of Innovation in Furnishing), a non-profit organization created to promote contemporary French design. Thirteen designers received Creation Assistance awards from VIA to finance prototypes of new work that was shown at Maison & Objet. Among the most recent recipients were Philippe Nigro, Marc Venot, Itamar Burstein and Constance Guisset, designers of a variety of chairs, tables and storage.
