The highly anticipated Kips Bay Decorator Show House, hosted by premier youth organization the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, announced the prestigious location of its fifth annual Decorator Show House in Dallas, Texas. The must-see design event has claimed 2999 Turtle Creek Boulevard in the esteemed Turtle Creek neighborhood as its 2024 location. The Show House will be open to the public for three weeks beginning Friday, October 25, 2024, and doubles as the nation’s leading design event of the year as well as the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club’s top fundraiser.
The Kips Bay Decorator Show House Dallas also benefits two local Dallas charities: Dwell with Dignity, a nonprofit agency dedicated to creating soothing, inspiring homes for families struggling with homelessness and poverty, and The Crystal Charity Ball, another Dallas-based organization whose mission is to aid, support and make contributions to children’s charities in Dallas County.
Nestled in the heart of one of Dallas’ most exclusive neighborhoods, the residence epitomizes luxury living location, surrounding scenic beauty and contemporary allure. “We are thrilled to showcase our fifth annual event at this iconic address,” notes James Druckman, President of the Board of the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club. “We anticipate a showcase that not only celebrates design innovation, but also underscores our commitment to raising critical funding both for the community and our kids.”
Turtle Creek, originally famed for its opulent early 20th-century estates, has evolved into the vibrant residential and commercial hub it is today, all while retaining its timeless allure. Nestled amidst graceful trees and expansive parklands, Turtle Creek embodies a seamless blend of pristine charm and luxurious urban living just north of downtown Dallas. During Dallas’s Golden Age in the late 1940s, the Cipango Club swiftly became a cornerstone of high society. This esteemed venue not only offered a mix of crafted cocktails, gourmet dining, and lively dancing but also housed a clandestine gambling room upstairs. In the early 1990s, Dallas real estate mogul John Eulich embarked on the construction of his family office on this historic site. With painstaking attention to detail spanning more than a decade, Eulich meticulously perfected the building at 2999 Turtle Creek, finally completing it in 2004.
Once intended to become the city’s first Mandarin Oriental hotel, the property sits between the historic Rosewood Mansion and the planned Four Seasons Hotel & Residences, featuring a 25,000 SF two-story office building, 2.3 acres of undeveloped land, and a 60,0000 SF below-grade parking garage. 2999 Turtle Creek seamlessly blends modernity with the historic French-Renaissance style that gives the neighborhood its signature feel.
“This year’s location offers a beautiful canvas for our talented designers, showcasing their creativity while supporting our mission to enrich the lives of our youth through the power of art and design,” said Dan Quintero, the Executive Director of the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club.
For nearly half a century, top interior designers have come together to raise more than $30 million for the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, which provides young people with much needed educational and developmental programs.
