Modern interiors for historic city homes.

San Francisco home remodel and interior design, before and after

Selected work

Small footprints, exacting detail.

San Francisco homes are rarely large and almost always remarkable: period bones, steep sites and views that change by the hour. We are most useful where every inch has to work.

We draw, specify and oversee custom millwork, lighting and stone, coordinating with your architect and contractor from permitting forward. The images below are drawn from our recent residences.

Primary suite

Compact luxury

A bathroom that feels like a retreat.

A glass-enclosed wet room, sculpted tile and concealed lighting turn a tight footprint into a quiet room. Planning creates the generosity, not square footage.

On site

Precise installation, quietly done.

City installs demand choreography: elevators, parking permits, narrow stairs. We plan every delivery and set each piece by hand, with floors and finishes protected throughout.
