SPRING 2026 HIGH POINT MARKET TRENDS I'M LOVING RIGHT NOW

Every season, designers from across the country travel to the iconic High Point Market to discover what’s next in interiors — and this spring’s show did not disappoint.

One thing became very clear while walking showroom after showroom: design is becoming more personal, layered, artistic, and experiential. Spaces are no longer just about looking beautiful — they’re about creating a feeling.

This season’s collections embraced creativity, craftsmanship, rich textures, moody color palettes, and organic influences in a way that felt elevated yet incredibly livable.

Here are a few of my favorite trends and standout finds from Spring Market 2026:

Creative Game Tables Are Having a Major Moment

One of the most exciting trends throughout market was the rise of beautifully designed game tables.

These weren’t the traditional bulky card tables hidden away in a game room. Instead, designers showcased sculptural, colorful, and artistic pieces that felt more like functional art.

From lacquered finishes and curved silhouettes to unexpected color combinations and luxe detailing, these tables are designed to become statement pieces within the home.

I especially loved seeing game tables integrated into living spaces, lounges, libraries, and open-concept areas — creating intentional spaces for gathering, entertaining, and slowing down.

This trend speaks directly to what many homeowners are craving right now: homes that encourage connection and experience.

Patterned Wood & Sliced Wood Furniture

Natural materials continue to dominate, but this season brought a more artistic interpretation of wood furniture.

One of my favorite recurring details was patterned sliced wood used on tables, consoles, and case goods. The organic movement and variation in the grain created an almost sculptural quality that added warmth and depth to each piece.

These designs felt earthy yet refined — bringing nature indoors without feeling overly rustic.

I loved how many manufacturers paired these natural textures with cleaner modern lines, creating a balance that feels timeless and elevated.

Moody Hues Are Everywhere

If there was one color story that stood out the most this season, it was the embrace of rich, moody hues.

Deep olive greens, smoky blues, earthy reds, rust tones, burnt orange, and warm terracotta shades appeared throughout upholstery, cabinetry, accent furniture, textiles, and wall treatments.

These deeper, more saturated colors create warmth, depth, and sophistication while still feeling grounded and inviting. I especially loved seeing these tones layered with natural woods, rich textures like velvet, and sculptural elements inspired by nature.

Moody hues also work beautifully in coastal homes because they add richness and contrast without relying on overly bright or overly themed palettes. The result feels elevated, collected, and timeless rather than expected.

This trend reflects a larger movement toward interiors that feel more personal, layered, and emotionally connected to how we want our homes to feel.

A Continued Nod to Nature

Nature-inspired design continues to evolve in a more elevated direction.

This season, we saw:

• Organic silhouettes

• Sculptural lighting

• Natural stone

• Layered textures

• Wood tones with movement and character

• Botanical influences used in subtle, sophisticated ways

  
  

Rather than themed décor, the focus was on creating spaces that feel calm, grounded, and connected to the outdoors through materials, texture, and tone.

This aligns beautifully with the type of interiors we love creating — spaces that feel luxurious, welcoming, and deeply personal.

Final Thoughts From Market

One of the things I love most about attending market is discovering how trends can be thoughtfully translated into real homes in a timeless way.

The best interiors aren’t created by copying trends — they’re created by layering meaningful details, beautiful materials, and intentional design choices that reflect how you actually live.

This season’s market reinforced so much of what we believe in at Candice Rogers Interior Design: livable luxury, warmth, personality, and homes designed for connection.

If you’re planning a new build, renovation, or furnishings refresh, now is the perfect time to start designing a space that feels elevated, functional, and uniquely yours.
