Elle Decor – March 2022

For the fifth annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House in Palm Beach, a group of 24 architects and decorators transformed all 25 rooms of a 1923 Italian Renaissance mansion, plus a guest house, into a tropical oasis filled with vibrant color and exciting new design ideas. And its quintessential Florida location sparked designers to take over the building with hothouse botanical motifs, graphic stripes, and whimsical patterns, from designer Catherine M. Austin’s Henri Matisse–influenced palette in a dining room to a softer, old-world Palm Beach–inspired terrace by Amanda Reynal. The show house, which benefits the Boys & Girls Club and Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County, is now open for in-person visits as well as virtual tours through April 3, but if you can’t stand to wait, read on for 15 of our favorite eye-catching moments. They’re sure to transport you from the winter doldrums to a private seaside getaway.

9. Nikki Levy Interiors

Designer Nikki Levy took one of our favorite 2022 home trends and ran with it in the primary bathroom: all-green everything. Here, the emerald hue shows up everywhere from the glossy tiled walls to the Phillip Jeffries–covered cabinets. Mosaic surfaces from Artistic Tile and countertops from Primestone along with golden accents from the Kohler fixtures add a nice contrast to the deep green shades.
