Away To Kips Bay!

I will be a docent at "The Kips Bay Show House"on both Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. I cannot wait to see these gorgeous rooms in reality. I have been keeping up with the images that have been on the web, but I am sure that in person these rooms are even more amazing! I know already that I have 3 favorites! They are Alexa Hampton, Cullman & Kravis and Darryl Carter!  The others are fantastic as well but I just love these designers and the fact that they approach design in a way that is unique to themselves. Here are some of my favorite rooms from Kips Bay, can you guess who did what? Answers at bottom of post!

  14. These are all fabulous rooms which show that it's so often the small details which really make a room stunning and different. I'm particularly attracted to the light fittings. Enjoy the experience!
