Fall’s a busy time in the home design world in Houston, with commercial home shows, designer-centric events and the big Round Top antiques shopping extravaganza.
This fall, the newish Design Edge, combining the best of High Point and the big KBIS kitchen and bath event, will be at the George R. Brown Convention Center, and home shows will connect visitors to new ideas and vendors at NRG Center and the Lone Star Convention Center. The annual Fall Design Week, organized by the Houston Design District, will showcase local and national talent, and AIA Houston’s annual home tour will open eight architect-designed homes to the public.
