"Hammerton is thrilled to be showing our innovative lighting designs in SALON this April," said Levi Wilson, founder and Vice President of design for Hammerton. "In the short time that we've been exhibiting in other High Point Market buildings, our product has garnered considered buzz and recognition, and our 2019 introductions are already generating excitement among our design clientele. Since Salon attracts buyers on the hunt for design-leading products, we feel it's the perfect exhibition location for Hammerton."
