Living Room • 2070 Bush St, San Francisco, CA 94115
Deep ochre walls redefine the living room. A rustic multi-bulb fixture replaces the old chandelier. A vintage velvet sofa and reclaimed wood coffee table anchor the seating. A glass-front cabinet displays personal artifacts.
Each object holds a story, reflecting Personal Eclecticism. Layered Histories inform every choice. Varied lighting creates distinct functions and moods. Circulation invites exploration, not just transit.
The room presents your personal history.
Design Philosophy
The design centers on Personal Eclecticism, showcasing individual narratives. Layered Histories are built into every surface and object. Antique and reclaimed pieces introduce visible character. The space encourages an exploration of personal stories.
Spatial Narrative
Your eye moves from the grand piano to the new display cabinet. You walk an indirect path, discovering objects along the way. You can sit on the velvet sofa, surrounded by personal history.
Light Study
Morning light streams in from the windows, illuminating dust motes and surface textures. Evening light comes from multiple sources: a soft glow from the main fixture, focused light from a reading lamp, and subtle accents. These varied lights define specific areas and moods.
Living Vignette
You open the glass cabinet door, carefully handling a small, tarnished silver box. The velvet sofa cradles you as you listen to a record playing softly.
