“The Suites at Market Square (SAMS) is the exclusive home for temporaries at High Point Market. It’s THE place to find one-of-a-kind products and resources, and to be awed and inspired,” says Julie Messner, Senior Vice President of Furniture and Home Décor Leasing for International Market Centers (IMC). “And the iconic Market Square features five floors encompassing 430,000 square feet of higher-end furniture, rugs, wall décor and home accents. With a wealth of designer-friendly options, it’s a top destination for every market-goer.”

Set for launch in October during High Point Market, Baratta’s initial line for Capel will include at least four collections covering a range of styles, constructions and price points. This brings Capel licensed collections to six – the others are Biltmore, CocoCozy, Genevieve Gorder, Kevin O’Brien, and Williamsburg.
