International Market Centers (IMC) has announced the debut of five exhibitors in InterHall at the Fall 2018 High Point Market, Oct.12-17. The new exhibitors will join 70 creative manufacturers, suppliers and designers introducing their latest products in one of the market’s signature design destinations.
InterHall, located on the first floor of the International Home Furnishings Center (IHFC), covers 80,000 square feet of show space and features up-and-coming furniture and home décor exhibitors chosen during a juried selection process.
Debut exhibitors in InterHall include: Bradley (IH502); Dowel Furniture (IH506); and Lenzi Marble Attitude (IH503). Kenneth Cobonpue (IH202) is moving to InterHall from the Suites at Market Square and P’kolino (IH200) is making its return after a short hiatus.
Known for its artisan-crafted, American-made products, Bradley’s product line includes case pieces, tables, upholstery, lighting, mirrors, bath vanities, textiles and wallcoverings.
“Bradley is excited to be debuting our product at High Point Market,” said Keith Bradley. “We will be introducing a new fall collection in InterHall, offering a fresh and clean look inspired by the bold curves and modern lines reminiscent of 1980’s design that includes wood finishes and fabrics with light, warmer tones and colors.”
Dowel Furniture was created by siblings Ray and Joanne in 2015 and features high-quality, sturdy and comfortable chairs.
“We are so excited to be launching the Dowel brand at High Point this year,” said Joanne Hallare Lee, co-founder and chief marketing officer. “We can't wait to meet more designers and get even more feedback to continue improving Dowel and what we have to offer to the community.”
Kenneth Cobonpue is a furniture design and manufacturing company from Cebu, Philippines. Company representatives note that Kenneth Cobonpue integrates traditional craft and innovative technologies to produce creative, organic and expressive pieces.
“We are thrilled and honored to exhibit our latest collections amongst the highest caliber companies in this respected building,” said Christopher Reiter, managing partner. “We are excited to introduce our new Dragnet Hanging Lounge Chair and Limbo Chandelier at Fall Market.”
Lenzi Marble Attitude showcases marble table collections from Italy and highlights artisan skill with contemporary designs.
P’kolino is known for playful style and smart functionality, representatives said. With the continued collaboration of an international network of designers and local talent, P’kolino is offering furnishings, toys, art supplies and décor that can be enjoyed by children and families all over the world.
“It is great to be back in InterHall,” said Antonio Turco-Rivas, co-founder. “This year we will be presenting our new baby and children’s mid-century furniture collections along with a new Playfully Smart collection of bunk beds and children’s décor.”
In addition to the new exhibitors, notable returning tenants include Michael Dawkins Home, Eichholtz, Adriana Hoyos Furnishings, Regina Andrew Design, Bungalow 5, and Tempaper.
