It’s not a surprise that Animal prints were seen all over Fall High Point Market in upholstery fabric. It has been a trendy favorite in fashion and the Designers walking the show were expressing their inner lioness at every turn.

Blue and white continued to be a huge favorite color palate with lots of Coastal inspired furnishings. Rattan and natural woven fibers were see on tables, dressers and lighting. Coffee tables and consoles wrapped in linen gave an airy look with depth and detail.

I was most surprised to see so much light colored framed furniture and case goods in white or grey, painted and stained. Lots of bed frames were clean and beachy with white solid paint or a distressed finish.  It was not a monochromatic story though as color was introduced in lively accessories as seen in pillows, decorative items and bedding. Adding to that indoor/outdoor cozy feeling were a wide range of indoor/outdoor rugs – soft to the touch with woven materials or even cut pile, that are super easy to clean.

Which trend is your favorite?

The common element throughout is good design. There’s always a reason why an element is chosen for a certain place, whether it’s a colorful painting in a room or a specific fabric on a chair. There’s also a functionality to every item that is unique to each project’s solution. It’s sort of like an oversized jigsaw puzzle with a place and reason for each piece.

“Your rooms are like a painting. Each component is a brushstroke to create the whole picture. It’s magic every time!”
