Since 2013, the Designer’s Days have become the D’DAYS, with a redesigned identity. This Parisian event dedicated to design in all its facets for the general public will be held this year from June 1st to June 7th.
This 15th edition will take place in various locations in Paris, Saint-Ouen, and Pantin.
This year, the intense D’DAYS program spans seven days, with 3 trails on the Left Bank and Right Bank, plus 1 trail in Greater Paris, Pantin and Saint Ouen.
On the agenda: 7 programs, 3 late-night openings, a pop-up store, an anniversary trail, events throughout the week, and the first edition of the Think Life Forum.
In total, more than 100 locations are mobilized to host exhibitions, installations, as well as debates, speed-dating, and in-person encounters with designers.
Lots of highlights, especially in the five addresses that D’DAYS is taking over during the festival, with exhibitions specially organized for the occasion such as ‘Futur Archaïque’ at the Passage de Retz or ‘Design (R)évolution’ at the Musée des Arts et Métiers.
The MelleBonPlan selection:
The Brazilian studio Design Da Gema is exhibited at the heart of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs during the D’DAYS Design Festival.
It consists of the committed Brazilian designer David Elia and the Campana Brothers. Their pieces, which have entered the private collections of François Pinault and Paula Cussi, will be visible for the first time in Paris.

- Sharing Thailand : Now, Then and Tomorrow.
Sharing Thailand was born from the desire of two organizations, one French and one Thai, to share new expressions and territories of experience in terms of contemporary design. The exhibition offers a sensitive journey between tradition and innovation, the pillars of Thai creation, thus tracing a common thread that allows one to understand the vision and sources of inspiration of the creators exhibited.
