Paris: Slow down and let yourself be inspired — just as Anne Marie does.

Autumn in Paris invites reflection — a season made for immersing yourself in everything that inspires: form, color, scent, and taste. Here, good meals, beautiful design, and the poetry of everyday life meet in a calm, graceful rhythm.

An autumn in Paris is a gentle reminder of how beautiful simplicity can be.

“Paris has its own rhythm,” says Anne Marie. “It reminds me that aesthetics shouldn’t be forced — they should be felt.”

For her, Paris is a tribute to honesty and simplicity — a place where a meal, a color, or a shape can become an experience of calm and beauty.

Like in Stelton’s universe, it’s not about what’s new, but what endures — design that feels as natural as a walk through the city on an autumn day.

“This isn’t a classic guide to Paris. It’s a list for those who already know the city — and love it. For those of us who find inspiration in what is timeless and refined”

Anne Marie Raaschou-Nielsen

Art and culture

Paris is a true laboratory of form, function, and beauty — values that lie close to Stelton’s DNA. Here, classics and new ideas coexist in a constant dialogue between art and design.

“Paris is the city I often return to. With its pulse, charm, and rich cultural life, it inspires me every time – both through the small everyday impressions and the unique atmosphere of its Parisian streets,” says Anne Marie.
