Hey, Design Lovers, I’m sharing lots of exquisite decorating details from some top interior designers today, as seen in the Aspire Showhouse in High Point last month.
This was my first stop in High Point on Friday morning, for the press tour, and it was a great way to kick off my market this season.
I came away energized, inspired and generally blown away by the creativity and detail oriented work done by these professionals from all over the country.
I’m sharing my pics of the first floor here today with you, so get ready to have some serious design envy!
First Floor Showhouse Decorating Details
On the press tour, they asked us not to do big, overall shots of the spaces, so I pared mine down for more close ups of some of the amazing details these designers put to work in their rooms.
The front living room was designed by Libby Langdon in grays and pinks. It was a beautiful entry to this lovely showhouse.
Lynda Quintero Davids helped her and a few other designers do some styling at the installation.

The dining room was designed by Scot Meacham Wood.
He mixes patterns so effortlessly, as evident in this space. There were so many fun details here.

The Butler’s Pantry was designed by Lauren Clement. Many of the designers used wallcoverings to add pattern and interest in their spaces, which was the case here.

The Breakfast Room was designed by Liles Dunnigan and Zandy Gammon of The Warehouse. The ceiling was tented in this room and they used lots of fun fabrics and china.

David Santiago designed his own wallpaper pattern in several colorways for the stair and hallway. I loved his creativity with running it in several different directions, like on an angle going up the stairs.

The kitchen was designed by Stephanie James and Patti Allen, with dark cabinetry and a pretty hex tile backsplash. It was so crowded in this room when I toured (a popular spot), I only got one close pic, but I loved the crisp, clean look.
The covered porch and side patio were designed by Cynthia Ferguson. What a pretty place to relax in this private, fenced garden.
There were a few spaces that I either couldn’t get to or had so many people in them when I was there, I couldn’t get photos. I’m linking to those designers here so you can check them out.
