HIGH POINT, N.C., June 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The High Point Market Authority (HPMA), organizers of the world's largest, biannual home furnishings trade show, has released its High Point Market Style Report for Summer/Fall 2017, the definitive twice-yearly forecast for home furnishings product trends.

Four teams of interior designers were selected by a jury of home industry leaders to participate in the Style Spotters program for 2017. At the trade show, each are tasked to search for furniture, lighting, rugs and decorative objects from among 2,000-plus exhibitor showrooms, in order to identify the season's hottest, must-have items for home décor. 

Interior design clients and furniture retail shoppers will see the following trends emerge over the next six months:

  • White Hot Texture
  • Tissue Pink
  • Angles vs Organics
  • Grand Textures
  • Salute to the Past
