History
A shoreline is a transition area between sand and water. Shoreline changes all the time. It separates different area between sand and water. If we stood on one of the angle, we don’t see the line and feel the change all the time. In the past, a part of San Francisco land was beneath the water. After immigrants came from Ireland and Germany and cultivated the land, this area became “Happy Valley”. It was a place between work and life. Shore is an initial place that people walk through and gather when arriving land from ship. Shoreline changed history, this land, 450 Mission building & nearby, merged work and life for people.

Mix-used atrium spaced show main idea, shoreline. Also, it could be hold various private events. Atrium
Beige light for each floors maintain the ideas. Also, the new atrium will gain more nature light from outside.
The high partition with acrylic separate the stairs and atrium space. The low partition could be movable that separates the restaurant & hotel areas.
When Special events start, the dark blue light stripe with LED light that change the environment immediately.
It inspired by old sink wreck ship sink in the sand by using irregular acrylic ceiling, dark color materials & reclaimed wood for flooring

The view shows from bath room to look through entire guest room. When Taking showing next to the tub, the water spread on the glass that shows ideas.
The idea for guest rooms are happy Valley: work+ Life from old residents before. Therefor, design use the contrast design, dark wood walnut cabinet & beige color wall paper to make it.
Full curtain wall for shower room make guest rooms look bigger than before.
One type of rooms re-identify a sand environment. By using beige color wallpaper and walnut wood to make contrast.
Another type of rooms re-identify a water environment. By using vintage dark color wallpaper and Navy carpet to display idea.

Natural Lighting

Painting Style:
Surreal/ Visual/ Black & white/ Contrast design/ Own story
The idea is embrace natural lighting based on my client, building situation, and his artworks. After interviewing with Gibson, he is very care about his artworks, family, and friends. He enjoy natural light, telling him own story by his painting. Also, the building itself is a really dark interior space. After noon, the sun could not shine inside directly because of next building. Therefore, the natural light become my main inspiration and solution to solve these problems.
Original natural light only come from two side, which is front and back side of the windows in the building. Section
