Charleston Home Market features the work of Charleston’s decorative arts designers and craftsmen, offering everything from contemporary furniture and glass to innovative lighting and textiles. The event adds a Lowcountry stop to fall buying trips by pairing Southeastern interior designers, architects, and buyers, as well as area residents, with Charleston-made goods and the local artisans who create them. The market seeks to bring attention to the burgeoning talents living right here among us, as well as create a forum to further encourage innovative designs.
