It’s no surprise that eco abounds at High Point’s Furniture Market this fall. What’s unexpected are the fresh interpretations of this trend that are on display by some of your favorite eco-friendly companies as well as newcomers to the green scene. What we’re seeing:

- Natural patterns like animal print and faux bois are being reimagined into cutting edge designs for upholstery and accessories.

- New materials are entering the mix as well, especially metallics.

- What were previously au-natural earth conscious designs have gotten a high-glam makeover this Market featuring glitzy designs, crystals and mod new applications.
