![The best-laid plans. danielhumm of Eleven Madison Park commissioned studiozung's Tommy Zung to create the ultimate pad. Then he met actress Annabelle Dexter-Jones (princesssummerfall) at a wedding while the place was under construction, and Cupid had other ideas. The couple married last June.
“I’ve been in New York for 20 years,” Humm says. “I just worked and worked and worked and worked. This is the first time I have a home. Annabelle has made this a home.”

![Show us your kitchen, and we’ll show you your life. The heart of the home reveals everything about the person living there, and our latest issue uses the kitchen as a Rorschach test. After all, we are where we eat.
Actress jessicacapshaw leads: she wanted her Bedford Georgian bright, cozy, and full of spots to curl up in—essentially a West Coast soul in an East Coast body. ELLE Decor A-List designer stevengambrel made the kitchen the undeniable heart, visible through casement doors, anchored by an island of white oak on paonazzo marble that seats the family. It’s warm, lived-in, and central, because that’s how Capshaw lives.
On our second cover, chef danielhumm gave studiozung a specific brief: build the perfect New York City pad, with a kitchen kitted out in stainless steel that practically disappears. But then Cupid struck at a wedding, and he married actress princesssummerfall before the renovation was even finished. The invisible kitchen became the site of something warmer: meals cooked together and family dinners with his daughters. The kitchen stayed sleek, but its purpose transformed entirely.
Throughout the issue, kitchens reveal everything: ghislaine_vinas layers wit and whimsy into Southampton, ritakonig reimagines spaces ready for family gatherings and parties alike, pilar_guzman and chrismitchellofficial discover that great renovations begin with dinner, and joymoylerinteriors tackles a 25-acre estate with fearless vision.

While high-wattage stars have long adorned these century-old spaces, the Great White Way increasingly feels like the Kips Bay Show House. As a rush of celebrities have flocked to Broadway stages in recent years, some emerging designers have made glamorizing these personal sanctuaries a signature service.

![Throughout the twelve-month restoration and renovation process of this historic Bed-Stuy brownstone, design duo brownstoneboys maintained a reverence for the home's original details, allowing them to take center stage. Missing sections of ornate plasterwork were reconstructed with painstaking attention, and damaged door frames were carefully repaired to accommodate new doors that maintained the original style. The original inlaid flooring in the entryway became a defining feature, its design carried through the parlor floor to create continuity.

![On New York’s Upper West Side, beneath the fictional Arconia building, is a secret space: The Velvet Room—an opulent underground gaming parlor hidden below the building's courtyard. It serves as the storytelling centerpiece for Only Murders in the Building’s fifth season—and offers a glimpse into New York's architectural past.
In the show's universe, the space originally served as horse stables when the Arconia opened in the early 1900s. During the 1910s, it was secretly converted into a gaming parlor, as stables were no longer needed. In real life, there was, in fact, an actual urban evolution that occurred in Manhattan during that era, when the rise of automobiles forced many property owners to reimagine substantial underground spaces originally designed for horses. At the link in our bio, engagement editor julia.cancilla chats with OMITB production designer Patrick Howe on the real-life Manhattan history behind the Velvet Room, and how he created an authentic period space that could believably exist beneath the Arconia's courtyard.]()

![When The Yacht Club opened on the 10th floor of Chelsea's Starrett-Lehigh Building this summer, it marked the arrival of New York's largest and most ambitious nautical restaurant yet. The 20,000-square-foot space, created by hospitality group Crew, uses walnut, brass, and rope to evoke the feeling of a private club. But as fall begins, a question looms: Can nautical design work year-round?
The answer, according to designers behind some of New York's most sophisticated maritime spaces, is at the link in our bio.

![The homeowner's vision for this San Francisco Tudor Revival was personal: to channel the magic of her late grandmother’s New York apartment. An artist and decorator, she had an Upper East Side home that was filled with marble orbs, crystal obelisks, and malachite inlay boxes. Her granddaughter describes the look as “elegant maximalism”—a spirit that extends to every corner of her own home.

The designer, who studied at the New York School of Interior Design and worked at Studio Sofield before launching his six-person firm, created a space balancing handsome sophistication with softness. Drawing on French '60s and 1970s Italian aesthetics, Zuchowicki sourced vintage pieces while commissioning custom upholstery for durability.

![Design is about honoring what came before. For this Bedford-Stuyvesant brownstone, the brownstoneboys discovered layers of history hidden beneath dark varnish and time—most notably, the legacy of Susanna E.C. Russell. Her feminine architectural signature—delicate plaster tapestries, graceful woodwork, ornate ceiling medallions—became the foundation for the design duo's restoration approach. The homeowner had lived in the space for seven years before approaching them, bringing European sensibility and a meaningful art collection to the project.
The result juxtaposes Russell's nineteenth-century craftsmanship with contemporary masculine touches: deep blue Golem tiles from Berlin, historic green Winckelmans tiles from France, and a terracotta-inspired pink pulled from the brownstone's exterior.

![Brooklyn design duo Barry Bordelon and Jordan Slocum—the brownstoneboys—discovered their Bedford-Stuyvesant project had special history: it was the original home of Susanna E.C. Russell, one of Brooklyn's first female developers. Between 1871 and 1892, Russell developed nearly 90 row houses in the Bedford Historic District, often serving as owner, architect, and builder simultaneously—unusual for a woman in the Gilded Age building industry. Her designs feature distinctive feminine flourishes: delicate plaster tapestries, graceful curves in woodwork, and ornate ceiling medallions. The twelve-month restoration balanced Russell's feminine architectural vision with the homeowner's masculine European aesthetic. The designers stripped decades of dark varnish from woodwork, reconstructed missing plasterwork, and added a steel-and-glass arched doorway to create a new parlor-floor kitchen. Rather than restoring details to perfection, they preserved patina and wear, honoring the home's 135-year journey. The project hashtag says it all: #SavingSusanna.

![The primary bedroom tells the story of Leah Ring of anotherhumandesign's relationship with her client perhaps best of all. While the space was initially finished in subdued blues, the wife later admitted to “decision fatigue” and asked for a bolder second pass. The result? A vibrant, butterfly-patterned curtain fabric and a punch of saturated pinks and purples—pushed brighter at the client’s insistence. “I love it,” Ring says. “She was the one encouraging me to go bolder, which is always exciting.”

![Taylor Swift’s new album, The Life of a Showgirl, is here. Whatever else it might be, it’s an ode to the—ahem—romantic life she shares with recent fiancé Travis Kelce.
The song 'Wood' is (among other things) a summation of her long and winding relationship with the wood she often lyrically employs for its superstitious, durable, and calming qualities. From “Out of the Woods” to the Long Pond Studio Sessions, the cover of her tenth album Midnights, and even the Eras Tour, Taylor Swift has lyrically returned to wood (the substance made of trees) for more than a decade.

![The 2025 Kips Bay Decorator Show House New York has finally arrived. The star-studded roster of design firms, each of which is assigned a designated room, includes ELLE Decor A-List members abranca, fordhuniford, designerjamiedrake, Mark Hampton, and vicentewolfdesigns.
Founded in 1973, the annual event—which has since spawned satellite Show Houses in Palm Beach and Dallas—has raised over $30 million for the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, a nonprofit that provides educational programming to underserved students in the Bronx. Among those in the design community, the Show House has developed a reputation as a place where creativity and experimentation reign supreme. It’s here that many designers, free of client demands, are able to take risks and express fresh ideas, offering a glimpse of where the industry is heading going into 2026.
