October is underway with the beautiful hues and splendor of its fall colors. With our the holiday season fast approaching, this means that…
ABCA is off to the Fall Market again!
Fall Market is an annual event around mid-fall where interior designers explore trade showrooms in High Point, North Carolina. High Point Market showcases the latest in home furnishings and textiles, produced by some of our country’s and other countries’ best manufacturers. Perusing these showrooms gives us the opportunity to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to upcoming products and trends. We learn about current products, research what we can expect coming up, admire the newest styles, and interact with America’s best furnishing, fabrics, floor coverings, lighting, art, and accent pieces. With access to this large, diverse group of vendors, we strive to bring back the best product samples and design insights to our clients.
When it comes to High Point Market, this is what we typically look out for:
- Textiles: We take note of latest colors, patterns, and textures.
- Sofas, Chairs, and Ottomans: We research arm, back, and leg styles from contemporary to classic.
- Cushions: With all walking that comes with the market, we like to personally see what sits good and has quality construction. Whether it’s soft, firm, feather, or coil, we let our bodies do the testing.
- Lighting: There is typically a large variety of lighting options, such as chandeliers, lamps, and sconces. Finding the right size and proportion for a room is best done in person, so we like to take note of our favorites for any future clients we’ll be working with.
- Metals: Metallic tones have been transitioning from brushed silver to champagne to antique gold for a while now, so we like to see what is the latest with this material.
- Finishes: We find that most clients have strong likes and dislikes when it comes to finishes for their space. Medium wood, such as walnut, cherry, or whites, have been king for years.
At High Point, our goal is to seek out the precise styles and products that can help reflect the unique beauty and comfort of our clientele’s homes. From chandeliers to rugs and wall to wall, we want to fulfill your interior design aspirations by updating your spaces. That’s why at ABCA Design, we only sell superior products like customized furnishing and window treatments.
