Master Bedroom • 2196 Jackson St, San Francisco, CA 94115
A monumental light fixture descends, dramatically altering the room's proportion. The fireplace mirror expands, creating an illusion of expansive depth across the wall. A large-scale art piece dominates, forcing a perception of vastness.
A tiny accent chair draws the eye to its unexpected smallness. Wall wainscoting features significantly taller panels, disrupting familiar visual rhythms. Small decorative objects on an enormous console make the console appear even larger.
This room challenges how you perceive scale.
