T he prestigious Kips Bay Decorator Show- house returned to glamorous Palm Beach for its fourth year. Twenty designers from across the country transformed the 4,400-square-foot Mediterranean-style villa into a design paradise, evoking the golden age of luxu- ry in the historic Florida community. Thematic threads included exuberant florals, a nod to chinoiserie, richly layered texture, and enough pink and green to make every fan of Lily Pulitzer ecstatic with joy. As always, the kitchen and baths were out- fitted in the very best from Kohler, with brilliant color throughout the home supplied by Benjamin Moore. Besides the luxurious interiors, the house also in- cludes spectacular outdoor spaces befitting an ocean- front manse, with a kidney-shaped pool and areas for entertaining or relaxing, including a Greek Islands-style terrace by SMI Landscape Architecture. The house was open to the public in May, and all ticket proceeds benefitted Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club in the Bronx, New York, as well as the Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County, who together serve T E X T DEBORAH L.
