    I Toured New York’s Grandest Design Show House—These 7 Trends Are About to Be Everywhere (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    A great show house doesn’t just reflect what’s happening now—it anticipates what’s next. The 51st Kips Bay Decorator Show House does exactly that. Set within an 1839 Greenwich Village townhouse at 80 West Washington Place (once owned by American composer John Philip Sousa), the 2026 Show House celebrates bold, imaginative design that remains, at its core, deeply livable. Spanning six stories and nearly 9,000 square feet, the residence features six bedrooms, eight baths, and three private outdoor
