What really strikes me from visiting the largest and most celebrated manufacturers is seeing a move toward a more luxe look that’s quite the contrast to the rustic industrial style that has been so hot for the past few years. Sofas and chairs are covered in plush, highly tailored fabrics. Tables are made with richly grained and colored woods or elegant stone (or both). Brass and gold finishes are all over light fixtures and accents. And color — bold and bright colors are everywhere!

The most impressive pieces we saw were handcrafted. Many pieces are customizable for a one-of-a-kind look. Materials are consciously sourced. Imperfections are embraced. And we got to meet the designers behind many pieces and hear their stories about how their designs came to be.
