Holiday House<\/a> \u2014 a decorator show home held annually on New York City’s Upper East Side \u2014 could not be more fittingly named. For one, the house provides the gift of good health: all proceeds go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. In the past seven years, the organizers of Holiday House have donated nearly $1 million dollars to fund breast cancer research and support women fighting the disease.<\/p>\n

But the Holiday House also offers another gift, one specifically pointed toward 21 very lucky interior designers. This gift is the opportunity to decorate a room in the exceptionally beautiful 1920s limestone Academy Mansion, located on one of the city’s toniest blocks. Told only to loosely base their concept on a particular holiday, these designers were given carte blanche to makeover their rooms from floor to ceiling, lending their own unique imprimatur to the home. The results are entirely transformative and speak to the singular vision of each designer. Scroll down to see incredible before and after photos of 14 of these rooms.<\/p>\n
