 Each year, the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Decorator Show House is one of the most anticipated interior design events in New York City, with celebrated interior designers transforming a luxury Manhattan home into an elegant exhibition of fine furnishings, art, and technology. This year is especially exciting because it marks the 40th anniversary of the event and it will be held for the first time at The Aldyn, a pristine luxury residential building on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.
 Over the course of four decades, this project has raised in excess of $17 million for the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club - an organization that has worked to improve and enhance the lives of the New York City children who are economically, socially or recreationally disadvantaged.
