HIGH POINT, N.C. -- Nourison was among the winners celebrated at the International Society of Furniture Designers (ISFD)'s prestigious annual Pinnacle Awards, which announced the recipients at a reception held Oct. 24.

Nourison, among the four Floor Coverings finalists, earned the award for its Scroll rug, a limited edition design introduced at High Point Market, which kicked off on Oct. 22. Scroll pays homage to the classic art of parchment crafting, featuring a multi-toned gray design framed by artistically shaded edges that seem to curl from the hand-tufted ground. This area rug is made from a blend of New Zealand wool and silky Luxcelle and finished with hand-carved accents for depth. Available in two sizes (8x10 and 9x12), the Scroll rug includes 50 pieces per size for a total of 100 pieces in total. Each rug will also have an individually carved unit number at the bottom corner.

The awards ceremony, held at Nido and Mariana Qubein Arena and Conference Center at High Point University, honored the winners from 20 competitive design categories. This year’s theme “Creating Tomorrow’s Homes” focused on the styles, forms, finishes, and functionality of the furnishings that will be part of our future lives. 

“At the annual Pinnacle Awards celebration, we recognize the creative designers whose work is brought to life by manufacturers and then introduced into our homes by retailers and interior designers,” stated John Conrad, ISFD executive director. “This celebration also provided an excellent opportunity for designers, manufacturers, and retailers to network and reconnect with friends, colleagues, and industry veterans as they experience first-hand the award-winning designs created for tomorrow’s homes.”

The evening’s festivities included co-Master of Ceremonies Libby Langdon, interior design icon, author, product designer, and makeover television personality.
