The High Point Market Summer/Fall 2017

Style Report

Inside Cover: Modshop

Is it possible to be in love with a furniture

market? Yes!

I truly have a sweet spot for High

Point Market. It’s a special place, unlike

any other. Charming hospitality, a long

heritage in America-made furniture,

the exciting lure of new products, and the opportunity to

reconnect with dear friends in the industry make it a high

point for me and my design team.

The Spring ‘17 event was as tantalizing as ever. We came

away with beautiful selections for many of our projects, new

design inspirations, and forward thinking business ideas.

Now, the 2017 Style Spotters – four design team duos whose

talent is off the charts – bring you their special finds in our

Summer / Fall 2017 Style Report.

Until autumn, enjoy the best of summer. I look forward to

seeing you in High Point!

We spotted a slew of white hot pieces and were

digging the calm and cool vibe, big time. White adds

an inherent simplicity to any space it graces, and

having the option of including it in any number of

interesting textural materials, like gesso, resin, and

plaster to a name a few, makes us happy as clams.

Metals in general were highly prevalent at Spring

Market – from bright and shiny brass to rose gold,

and everything in between. We always enjoy a classic,

well-patinaed brass finish, especially when it’s paired

with other metals and materials to make the space

feel lived in and not so matchy-matchy. Mixing metals

is something we highly encourage, in order to avoid

too much of a good thing. Adding any of these

stunning pieces would be divine.

Art is oftentimes left as the last part of the puzzle.

However, these items make art anything but an

afterthought. Furniture that had function but doubled as

art popped up in quite a few showrooms in, dare we say,

the most creative ways.

ISHKA DESIGNSThe movement toward celebrating makers and artisans is

definitely on the rise, and we are here for it. Major standouts

this year showcase beautiful craftsmanship, intricate detailing,

and impressive functionality with a refinement that exudes

simplicity. Nothing was too overdone, as fine woodworking

details celebrated the amazing qualities of wood and materials

in their purest form, as well as the mixing of materials to

create interesting objects, and the intricacies of inlaid

craftsmanship.

The unexpected can make a room come to life. As such, irregular

shapes, interesting angles and just plain old outside the box thinking

were the highlights for us at Spring Market. Not only were we caught

up in all the unexpected angles on the most typical of furnishings

but we couldn’t get enough of the organic forms, either. Sofas on

angles and light fixtures on angles juxtaposed against furnishings and

accessories that looked like they were plucked right out of nature

make for quite the interesting composition in any room.

Picture a tissue box with an ever so slight tint of pink. It was good enough

for our grandmothers – it is even better for this generation! This super soft

light pink hue caught our eyes this Market more than ever – on furniture

finishes, fabrics, lamps and lampshades, artwork, and wallpaper. A refreshing

color with a young vibe, our favorite applications were the lacquered painted

finishes. Really good, soft tissue pinks are hard to find on furniture finishes

but almost all case goods showrooms had an excellent version. It seems to

be a classic look that is trending now and will stand the test of time.

Everywhere we looked at Market there was white! As most people know,

we are known for our color. Well, we loved the white this spring, and it kept

catching our eyes as we toured showrooms. We have never seen white so

sexy! All shades of white in all types of finishes including chalky, lacquer, and

natural. We saw it in metals, stones, and most every medium you can imagine.

It was really different this Market yet still showed that a neutral white can

go with anything and everything! It always fits seamlessly into any design

scheme or workup – any period or style.

As we shopped Spring Market we found clean classic lines are still a big trend!

We were inspired by the classic forms with clean lines that were popping up in

every showroom we visited. We tend to be traditional and loved these looks.

It is so nice to see fresh, pared down versions of heavy traditional designs.

Instead of heavy carving we saw linear lines in furnishings, lamps, chandeliers,

and even tabletop accessories. We feel like these clean lines might be here

for the long run. They tend to be more classic and elegant, and can work in

traditional, modern, and transitional interiors.

CLEAN LINES

Among our favorites were the classical inspirations from the deco era, found in the

shagreen cabinet from Michelle Workman’s Facet collection at French Heritage, and

the lovely Salon bench from Ambella Home.

Unique Regency and classically carved European lines were found at Jonathan Charles.

The urn finials on this spindle Morris bed by William Yeoward are fantastic. We would

pair this with the simplicity of the crisp, white comfortable Willow sofa by Suzanne

Kasler for Hickory Chair.

Mixing textures together, such as velvet and shagreen, always brings a luxe feel to a

space. We were blown away by Stanley Furniture’s nod to 70’s California cool, the

Panavista collection. The lacquered, faux goatskin Sundial tables with brass inlay are a

chic staple.

We are always on the hunt for good wallcoverings like this French country landscape

by French Market, one of many painterly European scenes. The new D'Este Console

with marble inset, by David Phoenix for Hickory Chair, would go perfectly with the

architectural fluted column detailing of the paper.

traditional interior, they elevate it to an updated

look through the use of lacquer finishes, mixed
