The Arthur Sachs Mansion is about to receive a stunning makeover thanks to the 43rd annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House’s 100th year. Selected by a committee chaired by interior designer Bunny Williams, 22 of the country’s most talented designers and architects will have eight weeks to revive the interiors of the five-floor, 9,600-square-foot townhouse.

“With a great mix of Kips Bay Decorator Show House newcomers and veterans, we are confident that this extraordinary team will help us surpass this year’s fundraising goal to further enhance after-school and enrichment programs for our city’s local youth,” said Williams.
