MARTINSVILLE, VA — Hooker Furniture is set to add several new collections to its Work Your Way brand, including a new modern-day home office category called “The Hub.” The new workstations are part of the company’s 100th-anniversary initiatives at the upcoming High Point Market.
Inspired by traditional secretary desks that date back to the 17th century – and gained popularity in the 60s through the 90s – pieces tap into the company’s design archives as well as its expertise in the home office category.
“Hooker Furniture has been a long-time leader in the home office category, carving out a very successful niche as early as the 1950s,” said Jenni Jungers, executive vice president of merchandising for Hooker Furniture. “Always on the forefront of understanding home office technology and the ever-evolving needs of consumers, the company has continued to develop products that meld form and function to meet the needs of today’s consumers.
“Offering flexible and multi-use home office functionality – whether it’s a small, dedicated home office used daily, an occasionally-used space in the guest bedroom or a family command center in the kitchen – pieces in our new Hub collection were designed for the next generation of small space home office needs,” she added.
Workstations making their debut in the Hub collection this spring include: Hera, Sonnet and Forrest.
Each Hub workstation is part of Hooker Furniture’s Work Your Way brand which includes a variety of additional home office pieces designed to easily transition the home into a multi-functional living space with features including printer trays, concealed storage, and pull-out/drop-down work surfaces. The Sonnet collection also includes coordinating bedroom, dining room and occasional pieces.
All pieces will be on display at the Spring High Point Market in Hooker Furnishings’ showroom, located on the third floor of Showplace.
