Join the International Society of Furniture Designers (ISFD) at the 26th annual Pinnacle Awards Gala recognizing the finalists and announcing the winners of the 2022 Pinnacles Awards, the industry’s most prestigious recognition for product design. The gala will be held on Monday, Oct. 24 at High Point University’s recently opened state-of-the-art Nido and Mariana Qubein Arena and Conference Center. Tickets are available by visiting the Pinnacle Awards Gala website.

According to John Conrad, ISFD executive director, “This year’s record number of 210 Pinnacle Award entries shows that the industry believes in the power of good design, the value of professional designers and the increased revenue that the Pinnacle-awarded products add. This all makes receiving a highly competitive Pinnacle Award even a greater honor.”

The 2022 finalists, all professional product and furniture designers along with undergraduate design students, envision and create the products that ultimately become some of the most sought-after home furnishings items around the world.  Their works are produced and marketed by companies large and small, but with a common denominator—to proudly illustrate that artistry, craft, and innovation are important and saleable to the consumer marketplace. In some cases, winning a Pinnacle Award has helped launch design careers and elevated manufacturers to new levels of recognition.
