Designers from all over\nthe country flock to New York City to be inspired by their colleagues.

This year Margaret and Alexis went to Manhattan for inspiration \u2013 and a\nlittle bit of fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kips Bay Decorator Show\nHouse is a great place to spot design trends, and we saw plenty to like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img
