Every April and October, our designers walk the floors of High Point Market with one question in mind: what’s next? This season, the answer came through clearly — and it arrived in green.
Not one shade of green. All of them.
From the deep, moody drama of forest and hunter, to the soft organic whisper of sage and moss, green emerged at High Point as the color story of the moment. We spotted it everywhere — wrapped around sculptural bouclé sofas, carved into statement marble side tables, and anchored into the velvet of an upholstered bed that stopped us in our tracks.
What makes this trend feel so compelling isn’t just the color itself — it’s how designers are deploying it. Green is no longer a supporting character. It’s the anchor. The architectural decision. The thing a room is built around.
Here’s what we saw:
A channeled bouclé sofa with a sculptural, shell-like silhouette paired with a luminous green onyx side table — organic forms meeting earthy stone in a way that felt effortless and deeply considered. A forest green velvet bed with bold channel tufting, softened by a blush wall and layered textiles in sage and celadon. Dark, slipcover-style sofas in charcoal linen that read as a near-green — grounded and relaxed without sacrificing sophistication. Marble tables in swirling greens and grays, carved into architectural pedestals that double as sculpture. And a deep black-green velvet slipper chair with the smallest hit of chartreuse trim — a detail so unexpected it was impossible to forget.
The common thread? Green works because it belongs to nature, and nature never goes out of style. It brings the outside in without the predictability of a botanical print or a fern on a shelf. At its best — the way we saw it at High Point — green is grounding, luxurious, and undeniably alive.
As we head into the second half of 2025 and into project planning for next year, we’re watching this palette closely. Whether it shows up in a single upholstered statement piece or becomes the through-line of an entire space, green is a color worth taking seriously.
