Twice a year, the furniture
industry flocks to High Point, NC to show off new products and to see for
themselves what is new out there. As it was my fifth time at the market,
I assumed that many companies would be showcasing typical traditional
furniture — i.e. heavy sofas with turned legs and boring fabrics. Instead, I
was pleased to see bolder color, bigger patterns, and collections strongly
influenced by fashion. Across the board, many designers are finding ways
to modernize traditional furniture. Other big news
for me on upholstery was nail heads and round pulls. Much of the furniture at High Point leans towards
traditionalism, but there's an interesting intersection with modern and
contemporary aesthetics.

The Baxter
sectional in a Spa Blue velvet, domestic texture is accented with a luxurious
velvet welt, exquisite silk toss pillows & an intricate nail design.

An ottoman may
serve as an ottoman or a coffee table. The oversized pouf is easily up to the
task with the simple addition of a sturdy tray. I love the bold orange color
and nail head design. Designer Barry Dixon
Lili

The orange

with much attention to the details, proportions, finish.
