Hawaii’s Insider at furniture market – Part 2

We are mid-way though our buying trip at High Point, NC and we’ve visited so many buildings and numerous vendors. Each showroom has its own personality and charm.  Natuzzi is just one of the few vendors where its showroom is an entire building!  The showroom emulates contemporary Italian style and design on the inside as well as the outside. (For more pictures of this architectural wonder, see this photoblog)

Other buildings or floors are dedicated to accessory vendors like AF Lighting. Here we found fun pops of color that we will be adding to our showrooms. Every possible wall art, lighting fixture, rug, and floral accessory you could dream of can be found at these showrooms. Inspiring design ideas are everywhere  beautifully displayed.

There are also celebrity sightings! Vendors and celebrities often collaborate to create a collection or promotion.  These collaborations bring household names to great furniture products for consumers. At market we saw Jane Seymor, Kathy Ireland, Papa Smurf, and Smurfette.  We even found a Hello Kitty bedroom collection!

How could I resist!

How is this for cute?

Market is coming to an end but we still have a few more days to scout out those great furniture finds for our HomeWorld customers.
