The Spring 2025 High Point Market is in full bloom—and so are the newest collections from some of our most beloved brands. At The Shops at Carolina Furniture, we’re always on the lookout for pieces that blend timeless design with natural influence, and this season’s introductions are nothing short of inspiring. From relaxed coastal textures to architectural elegance and bold organic silhouettes, here are a few standouts we can’t wait to bring to our showroom. 

Ray Booth’s Tectonic Collection with Hickory Chair

Ray Booth returns to High Point Market with Tectonic, his fourth and most evolved collection with Hickory Chair. Rooted in architectural principles yet softened with organic touches, this series explores the intersection of structure, comfort, and timeless design. Clean, faceted lines meet light finishes and refined details—like browned steel and antique brass hardware, reeded edges, and channel-quilted upholstery. A low-sheen, natural oak finish exclusive to the line lends an easy elegance throughout. 

The Rylen Sofa exemplifies this balance of form and function. With its angular silhouette and tailored presence, it’s designed to support creative room layouts—equally at home in open concept spaces or more traditional settings. Booth’s signature is clear throughout the collection: thoughtful craftsmanship, enduring comfort, and a fresh approach to modern living. 

Universal Furniture Collaborates with Coastal Living on Oasis Collection

Bringing the essence of breezy retreats indoors, Universal Furniture’s Oasis Collection is all about relaxed refinement. Using natural materials like cane, grasscloth, and twisted abaca, the pieces are grounded in warm finishes—like Dockside oak and Shoreline pine—and elevated by details like quartz and aged pewter hardware. From louvered headboards to coral-inspired tables, this collection captures that sun-drenched coastal charm. 

Universal is also unveiling its largest upholstery launch ever, with curved silhouettes and tactile materials that emphasize comfort and organic design. Look out for the Enzo Swivel Chair and Kylo Accent Chair—each one a sculptural statement rooted in softness. 

Uttermost’s Debut Outdoor Collection

For the first time, Uttermost is bringing its signature design sensibility outdoors. Their new 175-piece collection marks a bold entry into the outdoor living category—combining refined aesthetics with durable, performance-driven materials. The line features quick-dry foams, solution-dyed acrylics like Sunbrella, and weather-resistant powder-coated finishes, all crafted to endure the elements while maintaining a tailored, elevated look. 

What sets this debut apart is its thoughtful coordination. With a tight, curated color palette and mix-and-match modularity, the collection allows for seamless styling across outdoor spaces—whether you’re outfitting a cozy patio or a spacious poolside retreat. Designed for comfort, engineered for longevity, and priced with value in mind, Uttermost’s outdoor launch fills a notable gap in the market: stylish, high-quality pieces that are both approachable and enduring.

Rich in character and full of subtle drama, Alexa Hampton’s Marlborough Collection blends classic detailing with a modern ease. Designed for Theodore Alexander, this versatile line spans living, dining, and bedroom furnishings—each piece marked by beautifully figured khaya veneers, warm brass accents, and a restrained palette of cream textiles. With its thoughtful craftsmanship and polished silhouettes, the collection strikes a graceful balance between heritage and today’s relaxed elegance. From tailored bed frames to shapely drink tables, every detail is considered—and quietly captivating.
