This new hillside home above the Castro in San Francisco was designed to act as a filter from the peaceful tress-lined street through to the panoramic view of the city and bay. A carefully developed rhythm structures the building, directing the visitor through the home with mounting drama. Each room opens to the next, then out through custom mahogany doors to the decks and view. Custom vine-like wrought-iron railing provide a counterpoint to the pure geometry of the rooms.

The dichotomy of this 1800s Renaissance revival cottage–style bedroom set and the other modern pieces is eclecticism at its best. The abstract artwork, the chrome chandelier and coffee table, and the the knotted wrought iron arm chair (reminiscent of Marcel Wanders' 2006 "fishnet" plastic/epoxy rendition) contrast beautifully.
