The High Point Market stands for great design and once a year the annual Pinnacle Design Achievement Awards celebrate it. Created in April 1995 by the Board of Directors of the American Society of Furniture Designers, the Pinnacles seek to promote better design quality and encourage the recognition of furniture designers within the retail home furnishings industry. As such the awards are intended to celebrate designs that are produced in large numbers for sale to customers through retail stores.
