The Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse features rooms decked out in almost every imaginable decor. From swooping and soaring ikat wallcoverings to hand-drawn, finely-detailed painted panels, from classic boudoir furnishings to the cutting edge laundry technology, the showhouse offers ideas to inspire every design scheme.
The amazing depth and breadth of the rooms is especially impressive considering designers were announced less than two months ago, and they had just six short weeks to turn the classic mansion into a showcase for today’s trends and a launching pad for tomorrow’s. In fewer than 50 days, designers pulled together every detail – furniture, finishes, wallcoverings, carpets, hardware, software and more.
The incredibly positive response to the designs, the air of excitement around the event and buzz about a re-invigorated design community proves that their hard work paid off – beautifully!
The Kips Bay 2011 Decorators Showhouse is open through May 26. For more information, please visit kipsbaydecoratorshowhouse.org or call 718 893 8600 x245. Image (Bedroom by Amanda Nisbet Design) courtesy The New York Times.
