Pli Office's 'TOUT EST CHAOS' at La Gaîté Lyrique Challenges Design's Purpose During Paris Design Week 2026

During Paris Design Week 2026, Pli Office will showcase 'TOUT EST CHAOS' at La Gaîté Lyrique, an exhibition that examines the significance of objects in a world overwhelmed by production. Curated by Christopher Dessus from Paf Atelier, the focus is on provoking thought rather than providing solutions. As creative directors and spatial designers, Pli Office incorporates exposed structural elements and raw materials into the scenography. The space is organized by two 30-meter-long metal spines that support the displayed works. The event features contributions from 11 invited studios and 64 designers selected through an international open call. An open design encourages interaction with prototypes and installations. Additionally, Pli Office will premiere its film 'TOUT EST CHAOS,' directed by Jason Borruso, in the immersive 360 Room, with photography by Florent Michel.
