Sustainability: ’Great Buzz Off’ Chair Surgery Tops Home Furnishings Hot Topics From High Point Market Monday

High Point, NC - April 4, 2011 – The “Hot Topic” of the day Monday at the traditional High Point Market for the Home Furnishings and Decorative Accessories Industry was the “Great Buzz Off” featuring designers Thom Filicia and legendary designer, Raymond Waites. With sustainable furnishings and green furnishing products the hot button of the day, this was perhaps the most eagerly awaited seminar in High Point this week.

On behalf of the Sustainable Furnishings Council (SFM), these famous designers harness saws, scissors and knives to perform surgery on furniture and demonstrate “live” the differences between sustainable materials and ordinary products.

Linda Carey, a veteran of the Home Furnishings Industry, marketing consultant and SFM member says, "I applaud SFM as well as Thom and Raymond for embracing sustainable design and performing their surgery live today so that all can see the procedures! No prescription without diagnosis, folks! Know what you are buying! This demo shows buyers that sustainability is a key prescription for charging up their retail stores.”
