Photos by Nickolas Sargent, unless otherwise noted<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The emergence of a zeitgeist is a mysterious thing. Sometimes, a new monograph or biography is the spark. Other times, it\u2019s a younger generation excavating a bygone phenomenon (like hipsters falling in love with Nina Simone). Often, though, the roots are less scrutable, as is the case with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kipsbaydecoratorshowhouse.org\/\">46th Annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House<\/a>. To what can we attribute, for example, a renewed interest in the Viennese <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/introspective-magazine\/wiener-werkstatte\/\">Wiener Werkst\u00e4tte<\/a> movement, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/josef-frank\/\">Josef Frank<\/a> furniture, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/round-sofas\/\">curvaceous sofas<\/a> and rosy pink shades?<\/p>\n<p>These characteristics were by no means ubiquitous. In fact, the most salient impression this year is the absolute uniqueness of each designer&#8217;s voice \u2014 but it was nevertheless interesting to note the way these popped up on the various floors of the townhouse at 110 East 76th Street in Manhattan. (Running through May 31st, the showcase benefits the Kips Bay Boys &amp; Girls Club.)<\/p>\n<p>None of the \u201ctrends,\u201d for want of a better word, are in evidence in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/michael-herold\/\">Michael Herold<\/a>\u2019s entry hall. What is most palpable here (and throughout most rooms) is the rekindled appreciation for historic styles that has been brewing for some time. Herold wrapped the space in a 17th-century Nicolas Poussin\u2013inspired landscape painting scaled-up by London-based Iksel Decorative Arts, which even reproduced the crackled surface of the original work (the wall covering will be available through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/schumacher\/\">Schumacher<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>This grounds more modern touches such as black-and-white striped upholstery, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/curtis-jere\/\">Curtis Jere<\/a> sculptures, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/joan-miro\/\">Joan Mir\u00f3<\/a> prints and an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/alexander-mcqueen\/\">Alexander McQueen<\/a> Monarch rug. The latter, says Herold, \u201csymbolizes the metamorphosis of the process this house, and all we designers, go through each year.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_300133\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-300133\" class=\"size-full wp-image-300133\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dan-Fink-Studio-photo-credit-Nickolas-Sargent-1-1-e1525710512640.jpg\" alt=\"Dan Fink Kips Bay Show House\" width=\"700\" height=\"909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dan-Fink-Studio-photo-credit-Nickolas-Sargent-1-1-e1525710512640.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dan-Fink-Studio-photo-credit-Nickolas-Sargent-1-1-e1525710512640-270x350.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dan-Fink-Studio-photo-credit-Nickolas-Sargent-1-1-e1525710512640-92x120.jpg 92w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-300133\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Garden floor space by Dan Fink Studio<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Dan Fink skews more Deco in his gallery at the bottom of the neoclassical stairs.
