Some designs never lose their appeal. A century after the birth of Andrée Putman, her distinctive approach to interiors continues to inspire, finding new expressions through the work of Andrée Putman Studio. At SALON Art + Design New York, the Studio brings together archival pieces and contemporary creations in an installation that celebrates the art of thoughtful living.

The presentation marks another chapter in the studio’s centenary programme, which began in December 2025. Over the past year, a series of exhibitions, furniture editions, interior architecture projects and cultural collaborations across Paris and New York have celebrated the founder’s work while introducing it to new audiences. These initiatives also bring archival designs into conversation with the studio’s current architectural and editorial practice.

At Booth D21, this exploration takes shape through a carefully composed residential setting. Furniture, lighting, mirrors and textiles from different periods are arranged as a cohesive interior environment, revealing the relationships between architecture, proportion and material that have defined the studio’s practice for more than four decades, from Andrée Putman’s original projects to the studio’s work today.

Rather than presenting the archive as a collection of historical objects, the installation approaches it as a living body of work, giving these designs renewed context. Some pieces were originally conceived for private residences, hotels and architectural commissions before entering production for the first time, while others return in new editions developed in collaboration with French artisans and manufacturers.

A mirror conceived decades ago sits alongside a newly produced collector edition, while lighting originally designed for an architectural commission shares the setting with contemporary upholstery and textiles. Together, these pieces form an interior language characterised by measured proportions, restrained materials and a thoughtful approach to the experience of space.

This sensibility reflects Andrée Putman’s contribution to modern interiors. Her work extended beyond individual objects, exploring how architecture, design and functionality could come together to create spaces with clarity and character.

Today, the studio’s direction continues under CEO Aurélie Laure and Artistic Director Olivia Putman. With a practice spanning Paris and New York, the studio develops interior architecture projects worldwide for private and institutional clients, alongside bespoke interiors, archival re-editions, collector pieces and new designs. Following the opening of its New York home in 2026, the studio continues to grow through new collaborations, projects and events.

At SALON Art + Design New York, the centenary programme offers a perspective on a design philosophy that continues to evolve. By placing archival pieces alongside contemporary work, the studio demonstrates how considered design can remain relevant while responding to new ways of living.
