Iconic Rooms

Over the past five decades, the highly anticipated New York Decorator Show House has grown into a must-see event for thousands of design enthusiasts. Every year the country’s most celebrated interior designers transform a luxury Manhattan townhouse into an elegant exhibition of extraordinary designs with fine furnishings, art, and technology. The event has become the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club’s top fundraiser, raising critical funds for much needed after-school and enrichment programs for children living in The Bronx, New York. To mark the anniversary, KBNY has created a very special book that includes 175 images of iconic Show House rooms selected from the past 50 years, recognizes the incredible work of its design community, and reflects the impact the Show House has in transforming spaces and lives. Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, a nonprofit organization, operates with the vision to empower young people to realize and achieve their full potential, equipping them with the skills needed to thrive in a complex world.
