Furniture World News Desk on 10/5/2015

The High Point Market Authority (HPMA) announced details for the Opening Breakfast for Fall Market 2015 (October 17 – 22, 2015). The topic for this event will be “Design and Sense of Place: How do Geography and Aesthetic Relate?” It will be moderated by magazine editors Kyle Hoepner of New England Home and Elizabeth Ralls of Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles.

A panel of notable designers from across the U.S. will consider how regional looks and international trends coexist in today’s residential interiors. The panel will be comprised of Mary Douglas Drysdale (Drysdale, Inc.), Susan Ferrier (McAlpine Booth & Ferrier Interiors), Heather Wells (Heather Wells, Inc.), and Christopher Kennedy (Christopher Kennedy, Inc.).

This program was developed in partnership with Esteem Media, and will act as the kick-off event for the inaugural Design Bloggers Tour. Founder of Esteem Media, Adam Japko, commented, “This panel is such a great mix of top-notch designers. I think the discussion is going to be full of great insight for designers to then take home and integrate into future design projects.”

This event is open to all Market attendees and will take place in the High Point Theatre, located in the Transportation Terminal, on opening day of Market, Saturday, October 17, 2015.
