HIGH POINT —International Society of Furniture Designers announced the winners of the Pinnacle Awards during a gala held at the Centennial Station Arts Center tonight.
The Pinnacle Awards are the furniture industry’s highest design honor, recognizing designs created by individuals who envision and craft the pieces that are produced and marketed by companies large and small.
“Each year when I see the exceptionally creative pieces that the professional and student furniture and textile designers enter, I appreciate the daunting task that the judges have in selecting the finalists and ultimately the winners,” said David Blair, executive director of ISFD. “Once again, the designers outdid themselves by submitting pieces and collections that continue to raise the bar in this prominent industry competition and make winning a highly valued Pinnacle Award an even greater honor.”
