History

Around an international competition open to young object designers, the Festival brings together exhibitions and meetings. Through this platform, the Villa Noailles aims to increase its support for young creation; to enable a better understanding of this field; to bring creators and professionals, as well as the public and journalists, together to exchange ideas. The Festival comprises two components: an object design festival in Hyères and an interior architecture festival in Toulon.
