Fresh from High Point: Suzanne Kasler's Paris Collection

In mid-April, we ventured to High Point Market with the majority of our Hoff Miller crew. We had a fabulous time reconnecting with long-time friends and work associates, and we met some lovely new faces. We also had the pleasure of viewing the new collections our manufacturers have just released, while meeting the designers who've worked so hard creating their collections and putting their vignettes together at market.

While at High Point Market, we tend to have "market moments", which we've defined as those special times where we may become giddy, shell-shocked, hearts racing, or we may get touchy-feely with a fabric... you get the picture! While we all had our own "market moments" around town, our biggest collective moment was in Suzanne Kasler's space.

We were aware of the collection's name, Paris, but weren't prepared to feel as though we'd actually arrived in Paris. Suzanne Kasler truly captured the look and feel of Paris with her beautifully scaled and detailed pieces, the lovely color palette, art and florals, and soft lighting.

"Paris is a constant source of inspiration for me. The boutiques, the hotels, the restaurants, the flea markets... No matter how many trips I take, there is always something new -- or ancient -- around every corner that inspires a new chapter in design for me..." - Suzanne Kasler

The Paris collection for Hickory Chair was inspired by pieces that Suzanne Kasler has collected over the years. This new collection is a sophisticated blend of intricately detailed, hand-crafted wood products, as well as tailored upholstered pieces. Throughout the elegant offerings, architectural elements are highlighted with modern details and clean lines for a timeless look. 

"The French have an eye for an edited, yet collected, simplicity that always shines through. The elegant scale, the high and the low, mixing old and new... that's all at the heart of the Paris collection."
- Suzanne Kasler

"With the variety of finishes and custom details offered,  these new pieces can be easily translated into many different interior narratives allowing each room to take on a distinct personality. The fun part is now taking it all in and making it your very own." - Suzanne Kasler
