High Point Market Week April 21-26, 2012
I wasn't able to attend but kept up on the event through Twitter & Pinterest. These seemed to be the most contemporary pieces I could find. Trends in the industry were bold colors (esp. in pink), Ikat prints, geometric shapes, and wooden accents.
Milan Design Week April 17-22, 2012
Around the same time as High Point was Milan Design week. Their trends featured a more colorful array of bold colors, with materials of plastic and metal. New to the exhibition was the ability to manufacture a product on-site...the metal Stamped Chair & Stamped Lamp by Tom Dixon.
