The Insider's Outlook From The Furniture Market
Updated 1/16/25
Read the room.
That’s Market, distilled to its essence. We read the design tea leaves, get a jump on the trendspotting, do the design research, investigate sources and materials so when you walk into the showroom at High Point Market (or one of our stores), you can read the room like you would a recipe.
It’s a mindful process for our company, one born of the intrinsic respect for both founders and materials. But the yin to our historical yang is the ever-forward-facing focus of the interior design industry.
When you’re looking to put that fresh face on your home, we appreciate that you want a combination of time-honored craftsmanship to support this next foray into a new design aesthetic. And we want to make it as easy to ponder and plan as possible, whether your “design-core desires” range from the joyous exuberance of maximalism to a sleek interpretation of cozily casual minimalism that leans more into Japandi and hygge.
Given this tempting eye candy, it’s hard to accept that ALL the inspiration found at Market is too much for any one space. (We know exactly how it feels when your Pinterest board explodes with ideas!) But the collection of all these vibrant and invigorating ideas is designed to inspire what ultimately does find its home with you.
- Color is sumptuously rich but grounded in nature – willow, topaz, pinot, moss, indigo, fig, waterfall, and more.
- Expanded offerings and applications of delightfully diverse texture remain the go-to for those seeking cool serenity – this neutral, monochromatic approach to building a soothing base for your natural lifestyle never goes out of style.
- Going beyond the basics – from spirited prints to a palette of patterns that can mix and meld in custom curation -- gives you the tools to revitalize your décor with YOUR personality.
- While we look to the past for inspiration, near past as well as historical, we deftly apply our innovative design skills towards ensuring the comfort of the pieces you choose for your modern relaxation.
Knowing that nearly everything we offer can be customized to suit your space and style means that this kaleidoscopic yet wide-lens peek into the design forecast carries all the limitless promises of a new cookbook by your favorite chef.
We understand that it might feel overwhelming – too many ideas leading to so many tempting choices. Finding your own design path is not for the faint of heart. So, whether you’re a designer we met in High Point or a design-wise customer who is getting a jump on your next restyle, an online or in person visit to Bassett is a great place to sample, taste, and plan.
Our stores offer free design consultation on any aspect of your personal design project, large or small. We also provide multiple levels of To the Trade benefits and services for designers. Whoever and wherever you are in developing your current recipe for style that suits your taste and answers your appetite for delicious design, Bassett is here to help you serve up your pièce de résistance.
