Kohler Elevates Kitchen and Bath Design at 2026 Kips Bay Decorator Show House
Kohler, a renowned leader in kitchen and bath design, proudly returns to the Kips Bay Decorator Show House New York as the official kitchen and bath partner for the 2026 edition. This prestigious event, an essential highlight in the design calendar, unites an impressive lineup of 22 nationally recognized designers and architects who will reimagine a historic townhouse located in Greenwich Village, New York City.
The Show House will be open to the public from September 16 to October 13, 2026, featuring a beautifully transformed Georgian townhouse that dates back to 1839. Throughout six levels, visitors can explore an immersive display of innovative interiors, artistic elements, and cutting-edge technology that exemplifies modern living.
At this year’s Show House, Kohler has integrated a selection of its innovative products that symbolize not only design excellence but also contribute to well-being in everyday life. Among the featured products are the state-of-the-art Synthos workstation sink, the Numi 2.0 Smart Toilet, and the Kohler x Remedy Place Ice Bath, along with several exclusive collections including the Artifacts faucet collection, Occasion collection, Components collection, Memoirs collection, and the iconic cast iron Porto Fino sink. Each product illustrates how thoughtful design can elevate daily rituals, from simple tasks to luxurious experiences.
What makes Kohler's involvement particularly significant is the brand's philosophy of merging functionality with creativity. Kohler is integrating its diverse offerings across various spaces, allowing designers to showcase their unique interpretations alongside Kohler’s signature products. This results in a varied collection of spaces that not only highlight what’s achievable in contemporary kitchen and bath design but also illustrate how these spaces can enhance our lifestyles, fostering connections and promoting wellness.
Brittany Canniff Kimball, a senior marketing manager at Kohler, expresses her excitement about collaborating with such a talented group of designers. “It’s a privilege to return to Kips Bay and see how Kohler products are perceived through this year’s diverse design perspectives. The beauty of the Show House lies in its ability to showcase multiple definitions of functional and aesthetic design. Kohler plays a vital role in these narratives, whether through moments of comfort and luxury or spaces that prioritize efficiency and wellness.”
This collaboration not only demonstrates Kohler's ongoing commitment to pioneering design innovation but also supports an important cause. The annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House has raised millions of dollars over the years for the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, an organization dedicated to serving youth in underserved communities. Nazira Handal, the director of special events and corporate partnerships at the club, emphasizes Kohler's significant role in this initiative, stating, “Kohler continues to set the benchmark for design innovation and excellence with each Show House engagement. Their ongoing support allows us to raise crucial funds for programs helping to transform the lives of young people across the nation.”
As the Kips Bay Decorator Show House prepares to welcome an estimated 15,000 guests each year, Kohler's presence underscores the vibrant intersection of technology, design, and social responsibility. With ticket prices starting at $50, proceeds will directly benefit the club’s programming aimed at enhancing the lives of children in need. Keen design aficionados and industry professionals should not miss this opportunity to explore the latest in home design and witness Kohler's transformative impact firsthand.
