The Kips Bay Decorator Show House Palm Beach exhibits the intersection of interior design and philanthropy, as it invites illustrious designers from across the country to strip a lavish home down to its bare bones and transform it into a sanctuary of craftsmanship, creativity, and innovation. Beyond its visual impact, the participation of design lovers and curious spectators serves as a major fundraiser for The Boys and Girls Club, an organization that serves the community with educational, recreational, and developmental programs to empower adolescents. Primestones, as a fifth year sponsor, had the privilege of collaborating with seven talented and gracious designers, incorporating natural stone into their spaces. From an elaborate moody dressing room and restroom to a bold yet feminine kitchen, this year’s projects are sure to leave a lasting impression. Take a look at what Kips Bay Palm Beach 2026 has to offer!

Sire Design 

Sire Design’s Primary Bathroom, aptly named “The Becoming Suite,” is a refined expression of storytelling through material, a space for transformation, self-expression, and embracing femininity. Cipollino Honed Marble defines the room with its fluid veining and soft, matte finish, creating depth and quiet drama throughout the shower and flooring. Bookmatched slabs turn the shower into a striking focal point, where earthy tones and natural movement feel immersive yet elegant, while warm brass details and rich plum walls enhance the palette without overwhelming it.

The main sink vanity, adorned with brass fixtures and gilded mirrors, grounds the space with strength and sophistication. Tucked into a cozy nook, a secondary marble vanity doubles as a dressing table and writing desk, its triple bullnose edge softening the stone’s bold presence and creating a comforting, intimate corner. A petite stone bar adds another layer of warmth, offering space for tea or a drink, making the suite both a personal retreat and a welcoming spot to linger. Confident in its layered textures and color, “The Becoming Suite” is a sophisticated, immersive space that encourages playful expression and elevated everyday rituals.

Firefinish Interiors

Rayana Schmitz brings the same fearless energy from her former career as a firefighter into her work at Firefinish Interiors, embracing bold choices and thoughtful problem solving in equal measure. In this cabana bath “Terra Calma”, Patagonia Blue Honed Marble makes a confident statement, wrapping the space in dynamic veining and rich tonal variation that feels both dramatic and playful. Rayana encourages people to stop fearing color, pattern, and texture in their spaces, to have fun with it, proving here that even with expressive movement in both tile and stone, a room can still feel light, airy, and serene. 

The honed finish softens the intensity of the marble, allowing it to harmonize with the colorful tile and sculptural details, resulting in a bath that feels vibrant, unexpected, and expertly composed.

Bell Design

Robert Bell’s “Darwin’s Deco” philosophy comes to life in “Neither Fish Nor Fowl,” a serene wellness-driven front garden designed for restoration and reset. Complete with a sauna, bubbling water elements, and generous lounge areas, the space feels both structured and organic, with lush plantings framed by crisp, classically detailed hardscape, reflecting his belief that every landscape must respond to its site, climate, and client with precision.

Manalapan Dolomite Honed provides a refined, durable foundation and clads a beverage prep counter with a mini fridge below.

In the backyard, the home’s original firepit was repurposed with Verde Ligure Marble on top, its vibrant green veining echoing the surrounding foliage and perfectly framing views of the Intracoastal Waterway. The result is a timeless yet living landscape, artfully balancing wellness, history, and the expressive beauty of stone.

Colleen Rosar Interiors

Colleen Rosar brings her signature mix of confident color and thoughtful layering into “The Place Where Plans Get Cancelled,” shaping an interior that feels both playful and refined. At the heart of the design, the Calacatta Rhino Honed Marble introduces a soft, elegant foundation; its subtle veining and honed finish ground the vibrant wallpaper and carefully curated accents while allowing the room’s character to shine. True to Rosar’s style, the interior feels assembled over time, where traditional craftsmanship meets modern personality. Fittingly named, “The Place Where Plans Get Cancelled” captures the spirit of a cozy oasis devoted to rest and enjoyment, a retreat so inviting and beautifully layered that staying in becomes the best plan of all.

The Lewis Gallo Design Group

In the “Champagne Conservatory,” Lewis Gallo Design Group beautifully expresses their signature blend of classic foundation and modern refinement. Barbara’s timeless sensibility pairs effortlessly with Meredith’s polished, contemporary perspective, resulting in a space that feels layered, fresh, and inviting. At the heart of the sunroom, the Dolce Australe Honed Quartzite anchors the design with soft movement and warm, sandy tones that echo the coastal light pouring through the windows. Its honed finish enhances the stone’s natural elegance, creating a relaxed yet sophisticated surface that harmonizes with woven textures, botanical views, and curated details. 

Designed as a sun-filled retreat to enjoy the views with a glass in hand, the “Champagne Conservatory” feels luminous, effortless, and thoughtfully composed, where the stone’s presence elevates the airy, inviting atmosphere.

Amy Young Design

Amy Young approaches design with a deeply personal lens shaped by her upbringing between New York and Seoul, blending precision, cultural nuance, and a strong sense of balance into every project. Known for her meticulous attention to detail and her ability to craft interiors that feel both elevated and livable, she designs kitchens that function beautifully while making a refined visual statement. In “The Breakfast Club, After Hours,” a name that playfully reimagines everyday rituals as something more intimate and indulgent, Velour Honed Quartzite anchors the space with its fluid veining and soft matte texture, bringing movement and quiet strength to the countertops and surfaces.

 The stone’s organic character enhances Amy’s tailored aesthetic, enveloping the room in rich color, layered textures, and is undeniably chic, resulting in a kitchen that transforms daily moments into an elevated, immersive experience.

Lisa Erdmann Interiors

Lisa Erdmann is known for her ability to design interiors that feel layered, personal, and effortlessly refined, adapting her style to reflect the unique character of each space. In ‘The Royal Retreat’, a nod to Princess Margaret and an imagining of what her home in Mustique might have felt like, she introduces a built-in bar nook crafted in Fossil Limestone with a leathered finish, adding both texture and understated elegance. The natural movement and fossil detailing of the limestone bring warmth and authenticity, while the leathered surface enhances its tactile quality, creating a sophisticated focal point that feels intimate, timeless, and thoughtfully integrated into the space.
