High Point, we’re having a party.
Join the Designhounds team and friends from across the design industry for cocktails, food, music and a chance to reconnect before Market gets underway.
And yes, we have a few things to show you.
Designhounds is heading into its next chapter, with new people, new programs and new ways to bring our design and industry community together. We’ll give you a first look at what we’ve been building, including:
Designhounds Bootcamps
Our hands-on product training days for established design professionals, K&B pros, builders and remodelers are expanding to markets across the country in 2027, working alongside local design communities and industry partners.
Perspectives
A new international exchange exploring design, design business and industry across markets and cultures, beginning this fall with Perspectives:UK.
element + matter
A new platform dedicated to the details that make design extraordinary: decorative components, hardware, surfaces, materials and the manufacturers and makers behind them.
But mostly, this is a party.
If you’re a designer, architect, K&B professional, builder, remodeler, manufacturer, maker, media friend or simply part of the extended Designhounds world, come have a drink with us.
Old friends. New friends. New ideas. Same beautiful community.
