MAY2026

Five days. Over 11.5 million square feet of showroom and exhibit space. And designers everywhere suddenly remembered they love color.

Spring 2026 High Point Market had a feeling that was hard to name — until it wasn't. Showrooms buzzed. First-time buyers showed up in record numbers. An Althorp estate heirloom was spotted next to a billiard-ball styling moment. A lighting piece made from bleached abaca and mariner chains. A sofa you could walk through. 

And gray? Gray had left the building.

The new IDS Spring 2026 Trend Recap Lookbook is inside all of it. Not just what we saw — what it means for the rooms you're designing right now.

38 pages of everything that matters this season.

What's inside?



• the five trends that defined the season,
• a color story that finally has something to say,
• emerging aesthetics worth tracking now,
• a vendor spotlight on the brands making the most noise — including some that didn't get nearly enough of it,
• and much more.
