The Stars Align in Dallas

For over 45 years, Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club show houses have raised funds for children’s enrichment programs while celebrating the very best of interior design. This legacy continues in Dallas, a showcase of incredible talents and the singular spaces of 26 interior designers. We’re throwing the spotlight on just a few of them here: Shelly Rosenberg of Acorn & Oak, Beth Dotolo and Carolina V. Gentry of Pulp Designs, and Bryan and Mike Yates of Yates Desygn.

Shelly Rosenberg

Shelly Rosenberg is a strong advocate for those who are not neurotypical. She brings their concerns to the interior design conversation and empowers them through her perspective both as a designer and as a mother to three children who are not neurotypical.

The space she designed for Kips Bay Dallas, specifically for a neurodiverse family friend named Virginia, shines some much-needed light on the need for more spaces and products that make life easier and more convenient for everyone—regardless of need or ability.

Calming colors and textures comfort neurodiverse individuals.

“What we’re really talking about here is designing for the largest minority in the world: Those who are not neurotypical.”

The Virginia’s Sanctuary bathroom includes a KOHLER_® bidet toilet seat, which features simple functionality and preset capabilities, and showering products with KOHLER Konnect^® voice-enabled technology. “Together, these are game changers for both the user and the caregiver,” she said.

An accessible shower and bidet toilet seat make daily tasks easier.

An Artifacts^® faucet ties the space together with a vintage charm.

Beth Dotolo & Carolina V. Gentry

Beth Dotolo and Carolina V. Gentry created The Wise and the Wicked, a sinfully fantastic lounge design and play hard-work hard office space that share a hidden bathroom. The combined space is a tribute to the modern woman: “wise about her business and also wickedly amusing in her off time.” Incorporating contemporary products like Components^® faucets in Vibrant^® Brushed Moderne Brass and the tankless Avoir^® toilet, the space reflects the duo’s fearless approach to design and flair for elements that are out of the ordinary. As Carolina says, “We always like to have a little sense of humor in our design.”

Dark tile lets the Vibrant^® Brushed Moderne Brass faucet finish shine.

Even in a bold room, the Avoir toilet makes a bold statement.

Bryan and Mike Yates

Bryan and Mike Yates named their lounge and bar space Inner Circle as an intentional play on the common phrase, as this lavish space is more about inclusivity than exclusive luxury. Inner Circle reflects the duo’s community-building philosophy, exemplified by the room’s welcoming allure. Exuding a timeless luxury, Inner Circle is the perfect spot for an entertaining evening. Mike noted that a trip to the local KOHLER_® Signature Store was invaluable in selecting the Crue^® faucets and Brinx^® bar sink. “I think the KOHLER stores are fantastic. Being able to turn on that showerhead or turn on that faucet and really experience how you woud use it, I think, is really crucial.”

Thoughtful lighting placement perfectly accentuates the room’s details.

“We’re only as good as what we bring to the table, and we believe in partnering with people who are great at their craft.”

Mike Yates

A Matte Black Crue faucet adds a stabilizing element to the opulent space.

With its faceted walls, the Brinx bar sink always makes a bold statement.
