The High Point Market Authority invites influential and emerging interior designers to apply for the 2026 Style Spotters team – an opportunity to shape trend conversations at one of the largest home furnishings trade shows.
Now through June 30, applications are open for new design voices to join the official trade show organizers program. The 2026 team will consist entirely of first-time Style Spotters who will attend both Spring and Fall High Point Markets, to identify and spotlight the most inspiring product innovations and design trends across exhibitor showrooms.
Selected Style Spotters will serve as trusted trend forecasters and contribute to a range of high-visibility content – including curated showroom picks, social media features and contributions to the High Point Market website.
“Being a Style Spotter is about more than trend spotting—it’s about taking a leadership role in the design industry,” says Tammy Covington, HPMA president and CEO. “We’re looking for interior designers who not only have an eye for what’s next but also a passion for sharing that vision with a broad audience.”
To apply for the 2026 Style Spotters team, candidates must be interior designers who are new to the program. Applications can be submitted online via the Style Spotters hub at www.highpointmarket.org/stylespotters by 5:00 PM ET on June 30, 2025. The new team will be announced early next year.
