From April 2nd to June 1st 2017 This year is the 45th year anniversary of Kips Bay Decorator Show House.  The lucky home to be transformed by celebrated Interior Designers this year is located on 125 East 65th Street.  Since living overseas for the past 5 years, in Brazil and then in Europe, I haven’t been able to cover any of the East Cost Decorator Show Houses, which I did consecutively since the year 2008.  But when in New York City this summer,
I’ll make sure to pay a visit to The Hampton Designer Showhouse, which stays open longer and get inspired by all these incredible designers.  All proceeds of this 45 year old design event benefit Kips Bay Boys and Girls Club, which currently reaches over 10,000 young people at nine locations throughout the Bronx.  Today, the club is proudly one of the most prominent and responsive youth development agencies in New York City.
