Demisch Danant presents In the room | Summer 2026, an exhibition conceived in collaboration with interior stylist Colin King that transforms the gallery into a carefully orchestrated domestic environment. On view from July 8 through August 29, 2026, the presentation brings together exceptional examples of postwar French design, contemporary furniture, lighting, textiles, and fine art, creating immersive interiors where each object contributes to a cohesive spatial narrative. Rather than presenting works as isolated pieces, the exhibition explores how design comes to life through its relationship with architecture and everyday living.

Featuring works by renowned designers including Pierre Paulin, Maria Pergay, Joseph-André Motte, Roger Tallon, Jacques Dumond, René-Jean Caillette, and François Arnal, alongside artworks by Sheila Hicks, Eugène Leroy, and Andy Warhol, the exhibition highlights the dialogue between furniture, sculpture, textiles, and painting. Carefully arranged interiors emphasize material richness, craftsmanship, and formal innovation while revealing the enduring relevance of twentieth-century French design within contemporary living spaces.

Building on Demisch Danant's longstanding commitment to historically significant design, In the room | Summer 2026 proposes a curatorial approach in which furniture and art are experienced as part of a unified environment rather than as individual objects. Through King's distinctive eye for composition and atmosphere, the exhibition invites visitors to imagine these works within lived interiors, celebrating the emotional, functional, and aesthetic relationships that emerge when design becomes an integral part of everyday life.
