High Point to launch ‘Amazed' exhibit at spring market
March 20, 2008
The spring High Point Market, set for April 7-13 in High
Point, N.C., will include a new area called “Amazed.” Plans call for the exhibit
to feature “an innovative display of thought-provoking ideas designed to
inspire designers, retailers and manufacturers.” Specifically, the area will
include an array of concept rooms on the Top Floor of the Suites at Market
Square that aim to offer insights into the buying habits of home furnishing
consumers.
“Designers and merchandisers are always looking for a source of inspiration for their work,” said Karen Olson, vp marketing for Merchandise Mart Properties. “We believe Amazed, our new trend center, will provide this. This is not your typical display of product trends but a more conceptual, stimulating personal interpretation.”
The Amazed concept was developed by Lynne Carroll of Covet, Mike Farrell of Imagine adventures and Merchandise Mart Properties. “The Amazed trend center will be a regular feature at future High Point Markets, although the content of the area will change each market,” Olson noted.
