TROY, N.C. – Capel aims its new style point of view™ on color this market with vibrant product introductions from famed interior and textile designers.
The urban and graphic influence of textile designer and artist Kevin O'Brien graces three rug collections making their official debut in High Point. Known for his use of color, O'Brien's introductions will feature a wool, loop-hooked construction that feels warm and nubby underfoot.
HGTV designer Genevieve Gorder brings her unique interpretations of global rug patterns, unveiling two new flat woven collections this fall. These durable, low-pile floor coverings are hand loomed for superior construction.

Genevieve Gorder will be in the Capel showroom on Sunday, October 14 and Monday, October 15.
