7 Home Decor Highlights at Atlanta Market Winter 2021
Here are some of the standout looks in furniture, lighting and accessories at the January trade show
Designers and buyers from around the country have been attending Atlanta Market Winter 2021 in person and online. Although the home furnishings, gift and apparel show has had thorough COVID-19 safety protocols in place, Houzz attended virtually. Here are a few home design highlights spotted at the Jan. 12-19 trade show.
Atlanta Market’s winter edition is also a great place to check out the latest in pots and planters. These pots on posts, called Skypots, help designers squeeze more plants into a garden with a small footprint and layer in plants at eye level. The pots have reservoirs in the bottom that cut back on how often the plants need watering.

2. Colorful Lighting Options
Lighting is another big category at the Atlanta winter show, and this season’s event offered lots of colorful options.

4. Dark Caned Furniture
Another trend at recent shows is caned furniture, which adds a dose of British Colonial style to a design. At the past few furniture shows, caned pieces with light-colored wood dominated. But in 2021, dark-stained or black-painted wood have lent a more formal and sophisticated look to caned furniture.

5. Beautiful Natural Textures
There has been a sense of getting back to basics at the market, and this includes natural materials and handmade pieces. For example, this bench combines a handwoven twine seat with lovely mango legs. The simple silhouette, handmade feel and natural materials would add interesting texture and warmth to any space.

7. Colorful Multiuse Totes
A tote bag isn’t usually part of a home furnishings story. But this market also features gifts and apparel, and there’s cross-pollination between those categories and home design. Many designers who have retail shops picked up items such as this tote, along with jewelry, journals, Christmas ornaments, design books, tabletop items, candles and other gifts.
There are several things about this tote that make it worthy of sharing. One, its color-blocked hues work well with contemporary art’s recent influence on interiors. Two, it’s made of hand-braided 70% recycled plastic. Three, its shape makes it an option at home for a structured and stylish basket for corralling toys, throw blankets, books or magazines. It’s good to think outside the box when looking for attractive containers during a New Year’s organizing frenzy.

Atlanta Market’s winter show is always a great place to check out the latest in outdoor furnishings and accessories. It’s held in the dead of winter, the perfect time to start imagining outdoor spaces and planning for warmer days.
This collection of faux stone outdoor stools and tables illustrates a variety of styles. At first glance, the fluting of a classic Greek column or the silhouette of a tribal drum may emerge. On second glance, Art Deco curves and Eames-inspired midcentury modern shapes show themselves. Such versatility means these playfully irreverent pieces will work well with a wide range of styles.
