With High Point Market gearing up this week and into the next, a number of new collaborations will be hitting showrooms and wowing marketgoers.

Before you make it to market, take a sneak peek at the latest introductions coming from these collaborators and make room in your schedule to see them in person at High Point Market.

Jeff Lewis + Alder & Tweed Furniture Co. 

He’s the talented, headline-making star of Bravo TV’s hit showFlipping Out.” They’re a family-owned furniture brand focusing on sophisticated high-end modern style for the masses. Together, Jeff Lewis and Alder & Tweed Furniture are pure magic. Earlier this year, Alder & Tweed called on Lewis to style over a dozen branded vignettes to help retailers merchandise the product in their stores and showrooms. Now, it seems the relationship has progressed. Alder & Tweed recently announced that Lewis has officially signed on as Creative Director for the brand. The TV personality will design the 2019 product line and exercise creative control over the 2019 catalog. 

What to expect: Lewis’s signature clean and transitional aesthetic, rich colors and lots of texture. The exact details are under wraps for now (stay tuned for a sneak peek soon), but look for Lewis to expand Alder & Tweed’s product line into unchartered territory. We’re hooked! Are you?

Feel the love: Meet Lewis at this month’s High Point Market on Oct. 13, 12-2 p.m., at the Alder & Tweed showroom (he designed it!) in the Commerce & Design building. And don’t miss his new collection for Alder & Tweed at the January 2019 Las Vegas Market

Rifle Paper Co. + Loloi 

We’ve said it before, but we’ll say it again just in case you missed the big news: Very soon there will be yet another way to obsess over Rifle Paper Co.’s gorgeous designs. The stationary and lifestyle brand is partnering with Loloi to launch a collection of rugs and pillows that show off its signature mix of unique color combos and playful patterns.

Feel the love: Rifle Paper Co. co-owner Anna Bond will be on hand at the High Point Market to unveil Rifle Paper Co. x Loloi on Saturday, Oct. 13, 2-5 p.m. in the Loloi showroom.

Martyn Lawrence Bullard + Corbett Lighting 

Lighting collaborations are on a roll this year. Corbett Lighting scored an enviable partnership with LA-based A-list interior designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard. Set to debut at this month’s High Point Market, the designer collection features chandeliers, pendants and sconces that combine Bullard’s signature eclectic brand of glamour with Corbett’s love of luxury.

Feel the love: Meet Bullard and experience the line firsthand Saturday, Oct. 13, 4-6 p.m. at Hudson Valley Lighting Group’s High Point Market showroom.

Barry Goralnick + Currey & Company

As far as collaborations go, a renown architect trying his skilled hands at lighting design isn’t that much of a stretch. That’s why when Currey and Company announced its most recent branded collection by New York-based architect and designer Barry Goralnick, we said “Um, yeah, what took you so long?” Just kidding. We could have never predicted a partnership this sweet, the result of which is a design-forward line of task lighting that we can’t wait to see in person.

Feel the love: We’ll all have our chance to check it out (and meet Goralnick) Saturday, Oct. 13, 3-5 p.m. at Currey & Company’s High Point showroom
