It is a niche I love that is technical, detailed, wellness-driven and foundational to how people live. But over the last few years, I have felt a pull to broaden my practice in a meaningful way. Clients are asking for more than hard surfaces and construction details; they want the furnishings, textiles, lighting, rugs, art and accessories that complete the home. This year\u2019s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kbbonline.com\/trends-inspirations\/a-kitchen-bath-designers-first-time-at-high-point-market\/94786\/\">High Point Market<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 my third \u2013 felt different. I was not attending as a curious observer but as a designer intentionally expanding my services.<\/p>\n<h2>High Point = A Turning Point<\/h2>\n<p>Two years ago, I lost a project I was fully qualified to lead. It was new construction, a second home and 90% in my wheelhouse. The deciding factor was furnishings. I addressed them too lightly in the scope and fees, and another designer focused on furnishings won the project. It was a hard lesson and a clarifying one. If I wanted to serve clients holistically, my offerings needed to reflect the full experience of living in a space.<\/p>\n<h2>Expanding With Intention<\/h2>\n<p>I am not making an overnight leap into full-home furnishing. I am expanding deliberately by beginning in and around the rooms I already know intimately. I am layering in tables, seating, cushions and pillows, rugs, blinds, accessories and the soft goods that elevate the spaces in which I have long specialized. It feels a little like going back to school, except I am bringing 28 years of business systems, technical knowledge, client trust and industry experience with me.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorite purchases this year was a glass and metal table from Charleston Forge. When it shipped from North Carolina, I suddenly needed to navigate receivers, freight logistics and white-glove delivery. This is an entirely different workflow from cabinetry arriving directly to a residence. I leaned on colleagues through the Northwest Society of Interior Designers, the only regional trade association in the Pacific Northwest, where I will be serving as president next year. They offered immediate guidance and connected me with a trusted local receiver. The value of a broad, engaged network was unmistakable.<\/p>\n<h2>What I Saw at High Point Market: The Rise of Neuroaesthetics<\/h2>\n<p>The theme running through High Point this year was neuroaesthetics, the study of how our environments influence emotional and cognitive well-being. It is a natural evolution of the wellness design principles I teach, including biophilia, universal design, sustainability, environmental health, air and water quality and WELL Building methodologies.<\/p>\n<p>I attended an all-day workshop on the neuroscience of design, and it reinforced what many of us in kitchen and bath already practice instinctively: We are designing for the human nervous system, not just the visual composition.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_165523\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-165523\" class=\"wp-image-165523 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/kbbonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/high-point-wall-sculpture.jpeg\" alt=\"soft wall sculpture at high point\" width=\"1000\" height=\"550\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/kbbonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/high-point-wall-sculpture.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/kbbonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/high-point-wall-sculpture-980x539.jpeg 980w, https:\/\/kbbonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/high-point-wall-sculpture-480x264.jpeg 480w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1000px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1000\/550;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-165523\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Roberta Schilling Collection.
