The Holiday House NYC is one of our favorite show houses! For the past few years it’s been held at the Academy Mansion in Manhattan, a stunning building that world-class designers redecorate, transforming the space into stuff that dreams are made of. We got a first look at this year’s house, which showcased gorgeous decor & apparent talent.
Check out these three breathtaking rooms from the show house:

Titled ‘Gallery Hopping in Miami’, the space was meant to transport attendees to Art Basel, an international art show held in Miami in December. “I ultimately wanted to create a space that elicits a response,” explains Justin. “My hope is that peoples’ shoulders relax upon crossing over the threshold into my room, that their breath comes easier, and that their soul is uplifted as they connect with each and every piece of art.”

Traditional libraries that have intricate wood details on the walls tend to be decorated with deep, rich colors, but the Lillian August team surprised us by lightening up the interior’s architecture with winter whites in an array of textures and colorful accessories. The room itself is a nod to the balance of nature and design, exemplified by the organic shapes in the room, of which the chandelier and console are standouts. To top it off, the designers have included a vibrant Willem de Kooning painting that has never been on exhibit before!

Designer Louis Navarrete created a mysterious oasis on the Holiday House’s third-floor bedroom, entitled ‘Mischievous Night.’ The moody space is a theatrical interpretation of the curious and reflective nature of the artist’s spirit and a haven for daydreaming. The room’s magical color palette of midnight blue, gray, brown and white is meant to evoke a cloudy haze in the night’s sky while the chandelier by Warren Muller–whimsically comprised of a saw, chains, pirate booty, an anchor, and a propeller–is inspired by a shipwreck .
