High Point: Spreading the Angelo Love

Can I just say that I’m totally loving Angelo Surmelis even more than usual today? Leslie and I had the honor to catch his chat with some very fortunate High Point attendees about designing for today’s consumer. We were thrilled to get a sneak peek at his new furniture line.

If possible, he is even more lovable in person and it’s totally evident that he has his finger on the pulse of the design world. His new line features colorful, stylish furnishings for your home that most imporantly are affordable!

The line is premiering on Overstock.com this July, and we’ll have more images for you soon. Plus, stay tuned for our vlogs with Angelo. Just wait until you hear about how he wants you to use his pieces in your home!

  9. Angelo:

    I am having a home built in a 55 plus community. It should be completed by this coming september. I am moving from Philadelphia to Florida. I am only taking a blow up bed, clothes, pots, and a card table w 4 chairs. Do you think I could get in contact with some of the design schools for a studen to help me?

  10. Angelo is brilliant. He has the capacity to see the situation immediately and bring it all together in 24-hrs no less. I am sure his new line will be a big hit. “You da man” Angelo.

  14. These couches look great – and the photography is fantastic – they look like well lived in rooms! I can’t wait to see more! Angelo is the man! FYI, Olga I found his blog with details on where he gets his stuff – http://www.thedesigngeek.com – that should help! & He has tons of pictures of the new line there as well.

    Paul on April 30, 2009 at 6:03 PM

  24. I love most designs Angelo has done. Most of all I love how much he really wants to please his clients. With such a big heart – he is able to read and get what people are looking for. Wish I had the knowledge to down load a photo of our home. I could sure use all his expertise. Keep his show coming and don’t ever stop. Thank you hgtv for finding Angelo and Thank you Angelo

  28. The new line looks fantastic. I’m already an Overstock customer, so this is perfect. Glad to hear the news and looking forward to doing a little re-do with some “angelo” pieces. All the best!
