High-end furniture manufacturer Alden Parkes is kicking off the October High Point Market with a one-of a-kind event – a Showhouse in a Showroom. This unique concept will feature the work of seven well-known interior designers who will transform rooms into works of art, using Alden Parkes’ casegoods and upholstery. The designers will also have access to products from partner companies, including bedding from Eastern Accents, rugs from Capa Rugs and tabletop products and accessories from Replacements Ltd.
“We love to shake things up, for our retailers and designers,” says Alden Parkes CEO Lynne McArdle. “We wanted to showcase how our products and designs can work in many different rooms and styles, so we created a unique and exclusive event that will highlight each designer’s individual style. We’re big fans of the many stunning showhouses that are produced in the design community, and we thought this would be a fun and exciting way to transform our showroom for the fall market.”
The seven design companies participating in the Alden Parkes showhouse concept offer diverse styles and viewpoints. They include:
Billy Ceglia of Billy Ceglia Designs in Sandy Hook, CT (billyceglia.com)
Jeanne Chung of Cozy Stylish Chic in Pasadena, CA (cozystylishchic.com)
Kara Cox of Kara Cox Interiors in Greensboro, NC (karacoxinteriors.com)
Cynthia Ferguson of Cynthia Ferguson Designs in Toronto (fergusondesignsinc.com)
Shay Geyer of IBB Design Dallas, TX (ibbdesign.com)
Jeanine Hays and Bryan Mason of AphroChic in Brooklyn, NY (aphrochic.com)
Kimberly Perron of Resort at Home in Jensen Beach, FL (resortathome.com)
“Each of our designer partners has a very different design style, which we love,” says McArdle. “I can’t wait to see how they interpret our product offerings in their own individual spaces!”
The Showhouse in a Showroom will kick off on Thursday, Oct. 11, and will run through the end of High Point Market on Wednesday, Oct. 17.
