It’s another exciting Spring season for England Furniture at the High Point Market: the largest furnishings industry trade show in the world!
Explore some of the new offerings from England Furniture being shown at High Point Market this week:
From an interior design perspective, few pieces of furniture are as versatile as sectional sofas. People who have lots of different setups in mind for their living rooms – or sitting rooms – will find England Furniture sectional sofas are a great, flexible choice. These are sofas that people can easily reshape according to their own needs and the look that they’re going for, because sectional sofas are made from multiple pieces that can be rearranged.
The sections of these sofas are often going to form ninety-degree angles. As such, it is going to be that much easier to wedge them into relatively small spaces. People often have unused corners in their rooms. Filling these corners is sometimes tricky, because a lot of furniture just is not shaped for that purpose. Sectional sofas really are. People can arrange their sectional sofas so they fill the corners of their rooms, giving them more space than they would have been able to enjoy if the sofas had been placed closer to the middle of the room. Since sectional sofas can be rearranged so much more easily, people are going to have an even simpler time making them work in almost any room.
People can also use sectional sofas to fill out empty space in very large rooms. The right angles that sectional sofas can form will sometimes make it look like people are creating little islands in their rooms, especially if those sectional sofas are paired with coffee tables and end tables. People who have this setup can create very comfortable and efficient sitting areas.
Since sectional sofas manage to look good in rooms of any size for different reasons, they’re automatically going to be much more versatile than many of the other sofas that people will choose today. Sectional sofas are very much in style in an age where people are favoring furniture that is going to be practical and versatile. If people have to move for any reason, their sectional sofas will look just as good in their new homes. If people need to remodel or redecorate, they’re not going to have to buy new sofas if they have their sectional sofas. People’s lives change, and they need to have furniture that is going to make those changes relatively easy.
When a distinguished silhouette is mixed with a little fun, the result is a little something for everyone. Our England Furniture Xavier silhouette boasts a tight back, shapely arm, block leg, and simple welted front rail. Choose your covers and have it at home in 30 days or less. Available as a sofa, loveseat, chair, ottoman, and queen sleeper.
The inviting aura of our England Furniture Thomas sectional has the ability to make a vast space feel intimate and cozy. From its crescent arm and generous scale to its extremely comfortable seat and wooden block leg, this sectional does no wrong! Make it truly reflect your style when you check out an England Furniture swatch rack and make your fabric selections. Multiple sectional pieces are available including a chaise and cuddler.
The High Point Market is the largest furnishings industry trade show in the world. Twice a year it brings over 75,000 people to High Point, NC. England Furniture will be attending the Spring Market again this year from April 16th – 20th.

Your living room flooring doesn’t exist to merely keep people from falling into your basement. Rather flooring is as an important piece of your living room. Here are some short-cut ideas for making your living room flooring spectacular:
On a Budget
Marazzi is just one example of a hard floor that presents itself more beautifully than its price suggests. Their Travisiano collection, for example, is a perfect representation of a travertine tile floor, but made with materials much more affordable for such a look. Strong, durable, and able to be cleaned back to brand-new condition for years. The timeless travertine look is perfect for any room as the color selection is always fresh, clean, and neutral.
Carpeting or Area Rugs?
As a compliment to any kind of hard floor, area rugs can change the look of a floor, even if they are just a few smaller rugs of the same pattern or style. With hard flooring such as tile, stone, or hardwood, a light colored area rug to go in front of the sofa and/or under coffee tables brings a bright fresh accent to darker colored floors. Children in the home might call for a darker rug to better hide crumbs and spills.
Wall-to-wall carpeting is always the most comfortable on the feet. Remember to have padding installed beneath your wall-to-wall carpet. Your arches will thank you. Depending on your style, shaggy or tight weave is available, as are many different patterns and textures. Choose what feels right for you.
Hello Porcelain!
According to some top architects in Scandinavia, traditional porcelain flooring is now being hailed as an option for living spaces. Porcelain has the slick-sheened beauty as marble, and reacts beautifully to a good waxing. Its reflective nature re-presents all of the beauty of your room décor and is perfect in style and cost to a room intending on featuring area rugs.
Your flooring will finish off the presentation of your living room, and the price of these options leaves much more in the budget for other furniture and floor coverings. Only you can decide what’s just right, but we hope that these tips will help you get there.
Other living rooms are formal and only meant to be used for entertaining guests and may take on a more “hands-off!” standing in the house.
Here are some ideas which can be used in both types of living room:
Adorn Your Walls With Your Own Style
Choose the style that’s right for the room which will serve as your social space. If modern is more your style, then white or off-white walls, clean lines and curves, a small number of meaningful minimalist art, and photographs in sleek lacquered frames might be more to your liking. If traditional is more your style, then art and photographs in classic wood frames against a more darkly colored wall or darkly hued wooden panels may be more suitable to your comfort level.
Everything Must Compliment Everything
If you are going with a particular style on the walls, make sure that your furniture colors are mutually complimentary. The style, of course, is important. But not as important as keeping the color scheme correct. An older style of sofa can look modern in a modern styled room if the colors go together properly. Pillows, throws, and carpets should all go with the theme of the room, as set by the wall coverings.
Create a Focal Point
To help anchor the room, there should be some sort of a focal point. If television is a large part of your use of your living room, consider a large piece of art, a sculpture, or large dry flower arrangements on either side.
With these pointers, your living room will be a comfortable, relaxing sanctuary from the rest of the world where you, your loved ones, and your comforts reside.
The recent Las Vegas Furniture Market proved to be a huge success for England, Inc. Attendance was up 97% over January 2015 and orders written were up 76% over the same time period last year. While several factors, including a much larger showroom, may have contributed to the increases, England Furniture has made the commitment to a greater presence in the western part of the US. That effort, by all measures, seems to be working.
While many things may be done to attract buyers to our show space, ultimately it’s the product, service, and delivery that keeps customers happy. In these three arenas, England Furniture does not fall short. Most of our new products received double-digit placements and commitments.
From our current lineup, the England Furniture 2880 Sectional was the top seller in stationary. In motion, it was England Furniture 3A00. The leather best seller was the 2R00AL. The favorite sleepers were the 300 and 900 styles. In accent pieces, multiple sku versions of the 2910 style took 4 of the top 15 places. The most popular fabric at the market was Desire Mushroom followed closely by Grande Leather. Stallone Branch was the top leather.
As our graphic proclaims, we are grateful to you for visiting our space and letting us show you the product that we are proud to display. We look forward to seeing you again in July/August.
