Kips Bay Decorator Show House 2015

Inspired by the grand scale & classic architectural details found in the stair hall of the Arthur Sach Mansion, first time Kips Bay designer Philip Mitchell has chosen to approach the space in a very personal manner. As an homage to his elegant & refined mother, philip has combined her traditional decorating influence with his contemporary approach to design. Contrasting his initial inspiration taken from the traditional pattern & fresh colour palette of Mulberry's Torridon wall covering, with a carefully curated art collection of both contemporary & traditional pieces of various mediums, Philip has created a modern day take on a traditional salon style installation. The Eclectic combination of new & antique lighting, the subtle mix of textured runners, the juxtaposition of dramatic art & the sparsely placed bespoke furnishings creates a unique visual experience as you travel up the stairs to the surprise bar alcove.
