Albuquerque, N.M. —

Contemporary rug resource Foreign Accents has plans to move into a new permanent showroom in High Point, N.C., come October in time for the fall High Point Market.

Foreign Accents — which this year celebrates its 25th anniversary — used to occupy a space at the Suites At Market Square, but will now be located in the International Home Furnishing Center's Hamilton wing in space H-513.

"We are extremely excited about our relocation because it positions us close to many of our contemporary case goods peers, making it very productive for busy, time-sensitive market attendees to coordinate their contemporary line-up," said Trish Rempen, president and ceo.

The new space will showcase Foreign Accents' newest designs and colors and will premier the company's new Michael Payne Home Collection of area rugs.

A reception in honor of Payne will be held at Foreign Accents' the new showroom from 5 to 7 p.m. Oct. 19.

The fall High Point Market is scheduled Oct.17 to 22.

Aside from High Point, the company also operates a permanent showroom in Las Vegas.
