Showcase homes exist all over the country, where owners allow their residencies to be taken over and remodeled by multiple interior designers and architects—a close-by example is the long-running Pasadena Showcase House of Design—but that tradition has yet to reach Las Vegas. That will change later this year, when a 5,300-square foot concrete-block home in the Downtown-adjacent Scotch 80s neighborhood (at 2120 W. Oakey Ave.) gets transformed by 19 local and regional designers, now tasked with formulating concepts that will be announced in October, along with their designated rooms or areas of the house. The effort—which will also include boutiques and a café, along with a relandscaping so the home faces north—opens in January 2018 and is slated for a three-month public exhibition, with proceeds going to Core Academy.
