The infinite potential of a blank canvas. The reinvention of your favorite room. The home you hope to create. WE BELIEVE THE MOST PLEASING ENVIRONMENTS ARE A REFLECTION OF HUMAN DESIGN. THEY ARE A STUDY OF BALANCE, SYMMETRY AND PERFECT PROPORTIONS. WE RESPECT THE HIERARCHY AND IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN ARCHITECTURE, FURNITURE AND DÉCOR THAT CREATE HARMONY. IT’S A DISCIPLINE OF ADDITION THROUGH SUBTRACTION, WHERE LESS BECOMES MORE, AND CALM IS CREATED THROUGH CONTINUITY. THE RESULT IS A HOLISTIC DESIGN THAT IS STRONG YET SIMPLE. WE SUBSCRIBE TO LEONARDO DA VINCI’S PHILOSOPHY THAT “SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION.” OUR DESIGNERS PLACE YOU AT THE CENTER OF THE CREATIVE PROCESS, WORKING TO REALIZE THE POTENTIAL OF YOUR HOME, AND TO BRING YOUR VISION TO LIFE.
All you have to do is imagine. FOR AN APPOINTMENT, VISIT THE RH DESIGN ATELIER AT YOUR LOCAL GALLERY OR CONTACT US AT RH.COM/INTERIORDESIGN.

EDITOR’S LETTER
STYLE MATTERS
I recently came upon this headline while scrolling online: FIVE EASY STEPS TO DEFINE YOUR HOME’S STYLE! Curiosity got the better of me, so I clicked and was served up five “looks” from which to discover my sense of self. A one-click approach to finding your style seems so, well, unimaginative. I’ve always subscribed to the belief that sartorial matters are personal and best left to marinate slowly over years, decades, a lifetime. This issue, like each one we publish, is populated with all manner of looks, attitudes and ideas (edited through our prism) and designed to spark creativity and expose you to a fresh inkling or new take on a deep-rooted idea. Here, we explore the age-old art form of portraiture, shine a spotlight on lighting that
ranges from Bauhaus-inspired to overtly maximalist, and report on tips and advice for entertaining at home. That’s our approach: to present viewpoints, designs and concepts with the hope that there’s an element or two for you to integrate and put your own spin on. Like people, the most interesting homes are layered, eclectic and unhurriedly evolved—never a quick click. From my house to yours, I wish you a season filled with beauty and enjoyed with those that you love.

memo LISA LOVELY PUBLISHER
Welcome to the November/December issue of Luxe Interiors + Design San Francisco! First, I want to mention how proud I am of this issue’s special holiday section, which features some incredible companies that we partnered with this year. They have provided us with stunning holiday ideas and inspiration to integrate into our homes this season, and, given that our home is our greatest luxury, you are sure to love this special section. Looking back this year, we were very fortunate to team up with Flegel’s Home Furnishings in Menlo Park. I want to thank Brian Flegel for hosting such a lively event, celebrating iconic midcentury furniture line Thayer Coggin. Luxe also hosted a talk on “The Power of Collaboration,” given by Murphy & Partners’ Wendy Battleson, where guests enjoyed a lunch-and-learn held at Nido Living’s beautiful showroom. A big thank you to Daniel Killar of Nido Living for the event. Lastly, Coup d’Etat was the host to Suzy Kellems Dominik’s art installation, “In Her Dreams,” which was yet another fabulous party at our partner and friend’s amazing showroom! I want to send you all my warmest wishes for a safe and happy holiday season. Enjoy the issue!

CONTRIBUTORS
BEHIND THE SCENES GET TO KNOW A FEW OF OUR CONTRIBUTORS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS THEY TALK ALL THINGS DESIGN. PRODUCED BY SARAH RAMIREZ
BRADLEY NESBITT WEATHERLY If I could interview anyone, I would… Want to talk to Kate Middleton, off the record. Any time you have the opportunity to speak to someone whose life is in front of the lens, it’s always nice to have moments that are stripped away to meet the real person, know what makes them laugh, get insight into their quirks and see who they are outside of the public sphere. Favorite Luxe interview: I enjoyed the conversation I had with landscape architect Mario Nievera of Nievera Williams. It was so interesting to see how he thinks of grass as rugs and boxwoods as wallpaper. His entire approach to outdoor landscape is so relatable to interiors. What type of architecture inspires you the most? I’m a Southern girl, so I love both Greek Revival and Georgian styles. I can almost smell the magnolia when I see a Greek Revival house; it immediately takes me home. Words of wisdom: Never let fear determine your steps.
JESSICA KLEWICKI GLYNN Photographer / Palm Beach
What’s intriguing you now in the world of design? I like that traditional methods of crafting furniture are making a comeback with many bespoke designers. I also enjoy when people repurpose antique hardware, including hinges, doorknobs and pulls. Top three things on your design wish list: I would love a marble-topped Saarinen dining table for my new breakfast room, some beautiful wall sconces for my bedroom (particularly Aerin’s black Charlton wall lights), and a redo of my pool area—something sleek yet traditional such as a bluestone pool deck. Who is the most fascinating person you’ve ever met? Growing up, all of my summers were spent at our family vacation home in Montauk. One day, while working the ticket booth at a movie theater in East Hampton, I was reading Kurt Vonnegut’s Breakfast of Champions. A gentleman walked up and said, “So how do you like that book?” I told him I loved it, and he said, “Do you want me to sign it?” I looked up and it was Kurt Vonnegut. I still have the signed copy on my bookshelf.
NICK JOHNSON Photographer / New York What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received? On my first day as a photo assistant, I worked on a shoot of Martha Stewart with the legendary architectural photographer Scott Frances. Afterward, I was telling Scott what a great day it was and he said, “As far as your career goes, you are what you shoot.” I try to remember this to make sure I get the best shots possible. Whose work are you influenced by design-wise? Mat Sanders and Brandon Quattrone of Consort Design and Estee Stanley. Their work is casual, comfortable and cool. I try to take what I can from them and incorporate it into my own house. Memorable Luxe assignment: While my assistant and I were shooting a Colorado house with amazing views, we heard a loud rustling behind us and saw a bear standing in the woods. We left so fast that we forgot the camera and had to get reinforcements to go back and get our equipment. The bear didn’t indulge us for any selfies, though.
PATRICK SORAN Writer / Denver Prized possessions: Since my husband and two dogs aren’t possessions, I would have to say my neoclassical console table built in Italy around 1850 (that I love more than I ought to), a pair of wood carvings of Egyptian gods Isis and Osiris that I bought in a shop on the banks of the Nile, and the little plaque I got in ninth grade for Best Creative Writing. What books have impacted you the most? First, William Zinsser’s On Writing Well. The author recommends that a writer get to the point, tell the story and then run to the nearest door. Right now, though, I’m obsessed with the symbolism of diamonds and radio signals in Anthony Doerr’s All the Light We Cannot See. If not a writer, what you would be? A flâneur is a person who does nothing much but walk around hither and yon and enjoy what he sees. I’d flâneur in Paris, Manhattan and San Francisco, thank you very much. Then I’d have lunch.

ABOUT
FACE THE BEST PLACE FOR A PORTRAIT ISN’T HANGING IN A MUSEUM GALLERY—IT’S ON THE WALL IN YOUR HOME. WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY BRIELLE M. FERREIRA
From the Mona Lisa and Girl with a Pearl Earring to American Gothic, the collective fascination with portrait art goes back far beyond even the most famous examples of the genre: back to prehistoric times, in fact, where crude renderings of faces in profile have been discovered by archaeologists in cave dwellings and in the tombs of Egyptian and Chinese royalty. Few mediums have had such staying power. So, what’s with the fascination with faces? It’s simple: Much like the best writing, portraits are a way to explore our humanity—something that highlights all the ways in which we are different and all the ways in which we are the same. So, it’s no surprise that the introspective art form has been increasingly making its way into our homes, with portraits often acting as the stars of busy gallery walls and standalone displays alike. Here, Luxe rounds up some of our favorite local and international artists that are keeping the ages-old tradition alive and fresh with new interpretations and thrilling techniques.
RADAR / ON DISPLAY
GABRIEL SCHAMA
FAMILY PORTRAITS Who: From his studio in Oakland, California, artist Gabriel Schama’s powerful profiles and portraits are a cut above—literally. All of his pieces are either carefully excised by hand with an X-Acto knife or expertly produced with the help of his in-house assistant, a laser cutter he’s named Elsie. What: Schama’s work runs the gamut, from reimagined images from newspaper articles and album covers where he’s replaced the faces with boldly hued paper-cut explosions to classic profiles executed in wood with inner workings comprised of Elsie’s precisely stacked layers (as shown in the section opener). Why we love him: There’s something meditative about Schama’s work, like a complex wood weaving or a dizzying mandala brought to life. It’s hard to look away. gabrielschama.com
KEHINDE WILEY
SHANTAVIA BEALE II, 2012 Who: No one breaks down boundaries and flips the narrative quite like Brooklyn-based artist Kehinde Wiley, whose classically inspired oil paintings are made modern thanks to their subjects. What: Highly stylized and realistically rendered portraits in rich palettes depicting black and brown men and women from all over the world in poses influenced by the works of the old masters. Why we love him: There’s so much ground the historical portrait-painting tradition has yet to cover, and Wiley’s work is helping to narrow the distance between the genre’s myopic view of the past and the incredible diversity of our everyday reality— while simultaneously celebrating it. kehindewiley.com; skny.com
CAYCE ZAVAGLIA
GARRETT, 2011 Who: Artist Cayce Zavaglia had spent her career working on photo-realistic oil portraits, but when she became pregnant 15 years ago and had to forgo using the toxic chemicals required of the practice, she switched gears: relying on nontraditional embroidery techniques to capture her subjects. What: Large-scale embroidered portraits that may as well have been plucked from the studios of the old masters. One of these complex pieces can take Zavaglia anywhere from six weeks to six months to produce. Why we love her: Zavaglia is able to capture the depth and personality of her subjects—all friends and members of her family—in their direct and unwavering glances; plus, the softness of the embroidery thread and wool she uses brings added warmth to each beautiful visage. caycezavaglia.com
SCHAMA , JORDA AND ZAVAGLIA PHOTOS: COURTESY ARTISTS . WILEY PHOTO: SHANTAVIA BEALE II, 2012, OIL ON CANVAS , 60 X 48 INCHES (152.4 X 121.9 COLLECTION OF ANA AND LENNY GRAVIER, COURTESY SEAN KELLY, NEW YORK © KEHINDE WILEY, PHOTO: JASON WYCHE.
OUKALY Who: Spanish painter Oriol Angrill Jordà has taken two of art’s most celebrated and oft-studied subjects— landscapes and the human form—and merged them together in his signature watercolor series, titled Blendscapes. The result? Portraits that break all the rules in the best way possible. What: Jordà’s work feels like a dream within a dream, with everything from steep mountain ranges to serene lakeside scenes depicted across the side of a face or a cheek, like a window into what his subjects are thinking. Why we love him: Because Jordà brings one of our favorite platitudes to life in his portraits: People contain multitudes. It’s a beautiful sentiment depicted in works that are both realistic and deeply imaginative. oriolangrill.com

RADAR / CULTURE
Walking in the shoes of some of the characters powering through traumatic, complicated lives in our favorite television shows may sound less than ideal—we’re looking at you, The Affair’s tragedystricken protagonists Noah and Alison—but living in their homes? That’s another story. One look at the aforementioned Noah’s effortlessly cool Brooklyn brownstone or Alison’s cozy beachfront retreat in Montauk can make even (spoiler alert) taking the blame for vehicular homicide seem a little more palatable. Catching a glimpse into the well-appointed Red Keep in Game of Thrones, too, can make it hard not to root for Cersei Lannister; surely, if she were so evil, she wouldn’t have such great decorating taste? As on-demand television becomes more of a staple of home entertainment, the remote’s role has gone far beyond pausing, playing and fastforwarding—it’s turning the small screen into a veritable Pinterest board full of décor ideas for everything from living and dining rooms to artist studios and, well, even the White House.
WRITTEN BY BRIELLE M. FERREIRA
It all comes as no shock to Steve Arnold, the production designer behind the uncannily realistic presidential-inspired sets on the award-winning House of Cards. “You would be completely amazed to know about all the emails we get from everywhere on the planet—from Australia, Europe, the United States,” he says. “They want to know where we sourced the chaise lounge in such and such episode, the fabric on the sofa in another episode. They’ll ask about the smallest little details.” So, is it just that people are spending more time in their homes and in front of the television, or has the entertainment industry itself become more keen to its audience’s design-leaning proclivities? It’s hard to tell. But for people like Arnold and set decorator Beauchamp Fontaine— who’s responsible for the easy, breezy coastal interiors on the set of Grace and Frankie, as well as blockbuster hits like The Revenant and Now You See Me—they’re still designing with clients in mind; they just happen to be fictional and on a crazy-tight deadline (sets are often
conceptualized and completed in as little as 6-10 weeks). This real-person approach is what gives the sets their soul and lived-in layers, and likely, what makes the spaces resonate with viewers. Lily Tomlin’s artist studio in Grace and Frankie, for example, was a real labor of love for Fontaine. “For Lily’s character, Frankie, the studio is the one place that is really and truly hers,” she says. “It became her refuge. So, it was important to me that we get it right.” To make it look real, then, Fontaine tapped a local ceramicist to come in before filming and work on the potter’s wheel— saving his half-thrown pots, slip and slurry, adding to the dialogue without saying a word. “What we’re doing is a different kind of storytelling,” Fontaine says. “Interiors can tell as much of a story as the plot sometimes. It’s been incredible to see viewers really catching on to that.” Above: A still of Lily Tomlin’s art studio from the set of Grace and Frankie, designed by Beauchamp Fontaine for the show’s premiere season on Netflix.

RADAR / ITINERARY
WRITTEN BY JESSE BRATTER
It’s almost time for the art world to descend upon Miami once again for the much-anticipated Art Basel Miami Beach fair—for artists and collectors everywhere to come in droves to South Florida for several jam-packed days of VIP previews, international brand appearances and auxiliary shows throughout the city’s metropolitan areas and artistic enclaves. Offering an oasis of design,
art and community in the midst of all the organized chaos will be Jessica Acosta-Rubio, whose creative agency Design Pub collaborates with designers and like-minded brands on both a local and global level to curate exhibitions and pop-ups. This year, she’ll join forces with Lululemon to host H[OM BASE]L at a residence on the Venetian Islands; the project will explore the seven chakras
through various activation stations with the help of tabletop brand Comunione, jewelry designer Joanne Stone, and other creatives. And while we’re sure to see Acosta-Rubio behind more events happening between December 1 and 4, she let us in on some of her other must-see spots for those who love art and design just as much as she does. atdesignpub.com
EAT “Egot,” an exhibit of furniture by Nun and Office GA, was previously presented by Design Pub and Giovanni Beltran. Damien Hirst's Gone but not Forgotten (above) is on view at Faena Hotel Miami Beach.
Soul Food: I’m a huge fan of Rene Gonzalez’s architectural work, and I love the indoor-outdoor Plant Food + Wine restaurant inside The Sacred Space Miami, a mixed-use facility he designed that focuses on wellness, education and community. From the restaurant to the outdoor area, this open yet private floor plan is so unique to Miami. It’s the perfect place to eat and drink while in a meeting or just occasionally with friends. The food and plating is absolutely gorgeous. thesacredspacemiami.com Feel Good: Paradigm Kitchen is a health-conscious restaurant concept in Miami Beach from the team at Jugofresh. I can’t take all the credit, but I loved helping them with some of their furniture selections from our favorite brand in Los Angeles, Bend Goods.

NOTABLE SOUTH FLORIDA-BASED CURATOR JESSICA ACOSTA-RUBIO DISHES ON CAN’T-MISS DESTINATIONS TO SHOP, DINE AND APPRECIATE DESIGN DURING ART BASEL MIAMI BEACH—AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHERE TO RELAX AND RECHARGE.
RADAR / ITINERARY Design Pub curates pop-up exhibitions like “#101ManMade” (shown here and center), a show that coincided with a previous Art Basel Miami Beach. At bottom is a look at the Plant Food + Wine restaurant at The Sacred Space Miami.
SHOP Plain and Simple: Good design should be accessible to everyone. And no one practices that philosophy more than the cotton T-shirt brand Neushop Miami, whose two main characteristics are function and quality. The simple yet meaningful ethos of Neushop is represented by the barebones quality of the historic downtown building in which it’s housed, and in the shop’s monthly design forums and events that are open to the public. neushop.com En Vogue: The Webster in South Beach is definitely my preferred place to shop. I love that they’ve preserved the look and feel of the Art Deco building, because the best part of the shopping experience is the contrast between the historic design and the new fashion trends they have inside. And the accessories selection there is on point: I’m a huge fan of Annelise Michelson jewelry; I adore the world of Olympia Le-Tan; and because we live in Miami, I always need to splurge on new sunglasses by Mykita. thewebster.us
EXPLORE Double Trouble: My favorite design duo in town is Jessica Martin and Deon Rubi, collectively known as Nun, who work out of Little Haiti. They’ve been part of our Design Pub exhibits for the past two years, with a focus on furniture design and objects, including collaborations with Jonathan Gonzalez of Office GA. They were also a part of the incredible show, Giovanni Beltran’s “Primitive Hut,” at Noguchi Breton in Miami earlier this year. deonrubi.com
Meet Market: I’m very excited about the Mexican designers who will be exhibiting in Miami during Comisaria Latina de Diseño, a design showcase of art, fashion and interiors by Latin American artisans in a bazaar-like setting. Check it out at the Royal Palm South Beach Miami hotel from December 1-4.
STAY Checking In: Faena Hotel Miami Beach is my new go-to spot to have fun among art and architecture. The design is just breathtaking, and the Faena Theater is like a dream. It’s so magical and whimsical that they call it a fantasyland, and they have a performance every weekend called C’est Rouge! that shouldn’t be missed. Every time I find myself at Faena, I always feel as if I’m inside of a movie. It’s like Wes Anderson meets Moulin Rouge. faena.com

Moore is More: The Moore Building houses a site-specific installation by Zaha Hadid that is definitely worth seeing. We’ll have a show there during the next big art and design invasion—Maison & Objet Americas in May—with lots of limited-edition works mainly by young talents from Miami and Latin America. bridgehouseevents.com

View Finder: I love walking around the Miami Design District and discovering new places. Alchemist has been one of my favorite finds. The fashion boutique has three locations, with this one focusing on fine jewelry. It’s again designed by Rene Gonzalez and has an unforgettable rose gold-mirrored façade, is surrounded by palm trees and lies diagonally to the Buckminster Fuller Fly’s Eye Dome sculpture. The whole area has changed tremendously—mounting exhibitions inside temporary spaces here over the last six years, I’ve seen it all. The Design District is the most ambitious project in Miami in terms of community building and outstanding design. I can’t wait for the opening of the new Institute of Contemporary Art, all of our summer rooftop parties and more restaurants to come. miamidesigndistrict.net

FINE PRINT THE CREATIVE WUNDERKIND BEHIND NEW YORK’S WALLCOVERING UPSTART, VOUTSA, GEORGE VENSON USHERS IN A WHOLE NEW GENERATION OF DESIGN LOVERS WHO BELIEVE PATTERN MAKES PERFECT. WRITTEN BY BRIELLE M. FERREIRA / PORTRAIT BY CHRIS GLOAG
“No one can pronounce it,” says George Venson, with a laugh, in reference to the name of his devil-may-care design house, Voutsa—an abridged version of his father’s family’s pre-Ellis Island Greek surname. And while that might be mostly true (for the record, it’s | voot | - sä), it’s had no bearing whatsoever on the company’s rapid ascent. Venson’s bold, at times risqué, wallpapers almost instantly found their niche after Voutsa’s launch in 2013, and his devotees have hardly let phonetics get in the way of translating the brand’s whimsical prints into statementmaking backdrops for daring interiors. Voutsa’s painterly collections feature wild and fantastical illustrations—from giant watercolor lips and coral-grazing goldfish to elegant birds-of-paradise and Russian dancers in mid-waltz. They’re all fun and eye-catching, but if Voutsa’s nearly meteoric rise can be attributed to any one thing, it’s to Venson’s own sheer force of will: his aversion to trends and his selfprofessed interest in charting his own course. “I have no desire to make the typical, expected things,” he says. “I want everything I do to have a bit of a twist, something no one sees coming.” It seems obvious, then, that a year after his first wallpaper collection premiered to great success, the artist-turned-product designer was on to the next thing: a capsule fashion line—in collaboration with Paul Marlow, the couture mastermind behind the retired menswear collective Loden Dager—rendered from Voutsa’s most popular patterns, which he’s currently traveling to promote in a series of international pop-up shops, like his latest in London, at right. “When I first started working with Paul, I told him I wanted to create clothing that represented my ideal look—from head to toe,” Venson explains. “We did tunics and shirts and bandannas, focusing on well-made pieces with classic cuts that could fit different body types.” For Venson, though, it’s not just about outfitting a body or a room; it’s about capturing a lifestyle—regardless of if that life is being carried out in a New York City apartment or in the Oval Office (a name he drops when asked for his dream commission). “I have a wonderfully diverse base of people interested in the work I do at Voutsa,” he says. “Whether it’s one of my wallpapers getting selected for a high-end project by a big decorator or a printed scarf going home with someone in Wyoming, I love that each person can take away a piece of this fantasy world I’ve created.”

BLUEPRINT THE MEXICAN MUSEUM
Something visually inspiring is making its way to the Yerba Buena Gardens arts district in 2019. This past June, ground was broken at 706 Mission St. signaling the beginning of a new era and new location for The Mexican Museum, which was originally founded in 1975. Spearheaded by developer Millennium Partners, the new crown jewel to the area will occupy the first four floors of the new 510-foot tower at Jessie Square Plaza, and has already garnered much acclaim. Designed by Ten Arquitectos, the striking architecture of the wedge-shaped façade is only a hint of what’s to come. Inside, visitors can peruse 52,000 square feet filled with the most notable Mexican, Latino and Chicano art from history through to the present day, tour the educational center, dine in the restaurant, and stand in awe of the two-story gallery that will showcase larger-than-life works. mexicanmuseum.org
“Lost Art Salon is a dealer of ‘found’ art, discovering works by largely unknown or often-forgotten talents, many of whom have worked locally in the Bay Area. Their space is like a treasure trove, and I consistently look forward to the thrill of the hunt here.”
“I have uncovered so many local artisans that I love to use to make my design jobs unique and more custom. The first local artisan that comes to mind is Brad Huntzinger of Ironies and Oly Studio. Brad and I actually went to design school together, and his creativity has always been inspiring.”
“I look forward to attending the Private Collections art tour benefiting Enterprise for High School Students. Art collectors open their homes to the public sharing their exceptional collections. Seeing the art and hearing the collectors’ stories brings the work to life.”

TALKING SHOP WITH PETER SALLICK
WATERWORKS When did you officially open? We made our debut at 155 Rhode Island St. in midSeptember. Why move? Our new two-story, 8,000-square-foot showroom is located in the heart of the San Francisco Design District. It’s three times the size of its former Kansas Street location and now provides clients with everything they could ever want or need for the kitchen and bathroom. Tell us about the design of the space. To create a suitable space that would inspire and stimulate, we chose a custom earthy gray paint color for the walls. Warm woods and leathers complement the shiny and matte hardware throughout—a nod to the Northern California lifestyle and clientele. Anything exciting to share? Our new showroom also marks the introduction of Waterworks Kitchen to Northern California. Now our customers can peruse dreamy vignettes that are brimming with cabinetry, surfaces, fixtures and furnishings all in one place. waterworks.com 114 / LUXESOURCE.COM

SAVE THE DATE FOG DESIGN+ART | JANUARY 12-15
Approaching its fourth consecutive year, the Fog Design+Art fair is a welcome respite for design and art aficionados in search of anything but a one-size-fits-all exploratory experience. Straying from the conventional idea of a fair driven solely by profit, the volunteer-based members that make up the Fog Steering Committee instead curate an all-encompassing show centered around diversity and cultural engagement. Visitors can peruse top talents from as many as 45 exhibitors and attend on-site programming featuring both regional and global discussions. The fair, held January 12-15 at the Fort Mason Festival Pavilion, will explore contemporary and vintage 20th-century design, contemporary art, photography and jewelry. fogfair.com

WHO: What started out as a part-time position at Elliott Fouts Gallery flourished into a full-time career as gallery director for Michelle Satterlee. With humble aspirations to drum up publicity for the gallery and local art scene, Satterlee took to social media. Today, with more than 4,500 followers, it’s safe to say the gal behind this punchy, color-filled handle is making quite the splash in the arts arena. WHAT: Expect to see the bubbly brunette out and about candidly posed (or jumping, in some instances) in front of museums, galleries, public art and wall murals wearing outfits that are uncannily similar to the art subjects in her photos. Satterlee likes to share in the thrill of her game, often reposting others who wear outfits inspired by a palette, design or pattern of a piece of art. WHY: From Mara Hoffman, Milly and Kate Spade to Franz Kline, Clyfford Still and Albert Contreras, Satterlee has her matching game down to a science. She likens the challenge to a treasure hunt. When art and fashion combine on her handle, you’ll think you’re seeing double. IN HER WORDS: “I think the overlap between art and fashion is so fascinating because it makes each entity inherently more relatable and accessible. There is a certain novelty factor that can be found within the space where both realms meet; it’s an intense visual experience that people seem to want to grasp and be a part of.”
THE INSIDER In a world where mass-produced is the norm, Leslie Santarina is breaking from the pack to highlight local makers and doers on her website, Spotted SF. The site was originally intended to showcase Santarina’s travel experiences abroad, but her passion for local artisans led her to turn her efforts toward her hometown. “My goal is to keep up with the city as much as I can because it’s growing and changing so rapidly,” she says. “I simply hope to continue sharing new local restaurants, cafes, shops, experiences, artists and makers as I discover them.” This winter, we tapped trusted travel source Santarina to shed some light on the wonders of her Bay Area hometown. spottedsf.com What’s intriguing you in your neighborhood? Shared and alternative work spaces are emerging everywhere. A couple that come to mind are Minnesota Street Project, a new collective of art galleries, artists and related non-profits inhabiting three warehouses, and The Archery, where I work as director of events. It is a gorgeous, shared coworking space for artists, makers and happenings. 116 / LUXESOURCE.COM
On your radar: I’m a huge fan of Tung Chiang’s work. He is the director of Heath Clay Studio and is always experimenting with form, function and glazing. At the end of each year, he holds a show featuring a collection of his work that I try to attend. Can’t-miss: Isobel Schofield is the founder and designer of Bryr Studio in the Dogpatch district. She has elevated the traditional clog, translating it in styles and colors that are customized for the
modern woman. On certain Fridays and Saturdays, she hosts an open studio so you can pop in to design your own footwear and see where and how the shoes are made. Favorite hidden gem: Designer Jonathan Rachman has an exquisite shop on Market Street in Hayes Valley. He is a hoarder in the best sense of the word and layers styles of every kind in the most beautiful and playful of ways.

DATE BOOK MAJA LITHANDER SMITH
Few things in the home are as special as a one-of-a-kind, handmade object, and no one knows this better than Maja Lithander Smith. As an interior designer and avid traveler, it is these rare finds that enamor her and add the perfect finishing touch to her projects. “We all want our homes to tell a story, have a soul and reflect who we are,” she says. “Authentically designed, beautifully crafted pieces elevate interiors in a way that nothing else can.” Sensing an opportunity in the marketplace, Smith put her talents to good use, opening the doors to her brick-and-mortar shop, Found, in September. There, Smith has created an oasis of exotic goods, curating an array of offerings, from silky ikat pillows and lush Moroccan rugs to twinkling lanterns and other items born from her collaborations with craftsmen from around the world. “When I’m sourcing pieces, I’m always cognizant that it will have some symbolic relevance to its owner,” she says. “So even if it’s a rug, textile or object, it matters that it is created by someone rich in talent, history and artistry.” When she’s not juggling projects or traveling, Smith pops into her favorite shops and showrooms around Found’s Sacramento Street neighborhood and, this time, she’s taking us along for the ride. foundbymaja.com 9 a.m. San Francisco’s Sacramento Street is a mecca for great design. I start my morning at As Quoted with a rooibos chai latte and an avocado sandwich with a pinch of sea salt and chili flakes. Then, head to Sue Fisher King for a shopping trip. It’s a requisite for classic brands and beautiful finds. 10:30 a.m. I’m always in the market for thoughtful hostess gifts and my go-to spot for those is March. I like to stock up on their kosher salt that comes in a delicate, inky-hued glass bottle— a gorgeous addition to any kitchen. 11 a.m. For my upcoming projects, a trip to The Future Perfect is vital 118 / LUXESOURCE.COM
to preview lighting from Lindsey Adelman and super-cool accessories from Tom Dixon. 11:30 a.m. I usually finish the morning by stopping into Jessie Black to pick up a cozy cashmere throw to “winterize” and add the fi nishing touch to my client’s home. 12 p.m. A little self-pampering is a must, so I’ll treat myself to a delicate pair of tassel earrings from Margaret Elizabeth Jewelry and an aromatic French candle from Hudson Grace. Then, refuel with lunch at the Italian eatery Sociale where any pasta will do—they’re all delectable.
2:30 p.m. Betty Lin recently moved to the area; so, I’ll head there for a special splurge. Then, it’s back to work scouring Anyon Atelier and St. Frank for items for my clients. St. Frank’s design books look great on a coffee table. 4 p.m. In terms of hidden gems, The Ribbonerie is a delightful place to shop. As a “textilephile,” I’m always in the market for a special ribbon to use in my latest project. 5 p.m. Head back to As Quoted for a turmeric latte to end the day! It’s the best afternoon pick-me-up.
Home at last.

KATIE KIME
ARTIST & DESIGNER KATIEKIME.COM
It’s rare that… The words “whimsical” and “architectural” can go together, but somehow, Rosie Li pulls it off. I’m a pretty big risk-taker in general. I tend to think that there are less “rules” in decorating than most others do. When I look at Bubbly I smile, because they really went for it, and to that I can relate. On trend: The piece is gold, layered and extravagant yet with a playful curvature. All of these elements are on trend, but especially the idea of pairing opposites: extravagance with function, playfulness with formality. When it comes to luxury design… It’s all in the details, but sometimes the details can often be painstaking and much easier to just forego. When a designer like Li has spent time on the finishing touches, you can easily spot the difference. The fixture against this backdrop… Is a marriage of two ideas: respect for the past and boldness for the future. It’s a delicate balance to strike, and here it’s done very well.
BAUBLE BAR
THE PIECE: Bubbly 08-Light Linear Chandelier THE DESIGNER: Rosie Li FIND IT: rosieli.com THE INSPIRATION: Inspired by soap bubbles and Newton’s law of universal gravitation, Brooklyn-based Rosie Li married maximalism with geometric elegance to create a stellar brass lighting system—a sculptural take on the traditional linear chandelier.
MARKET / SPOTLIGHT
ABOVE THE FOLD THE PIECE: Origami Table Lamp THE DESIGNER: François Champsaur for Pouenat FIND IT: hollyhunt.com THE INSPIRATION: Calling on the ancient art of origami, François Champsaur’s angular brass table lamp explores the infinite possibilities offered by metal, with the sharp, decorative lines of the material clearly on display.
DAVID MONTALBA
ARCHITECT MONTALBAARCHITECTS.COM
François Champsaur’s work shows… A strong, consistent support of extremely high-quality design and unique craftsmanship. The folded metal planes and the focus of the light on the material’s surface feel very architectural and intentional. It reminds me of both contemporary sculpture and some of our own work: It’s rooted in the past with its cast fabrication, but its form suggests a contemporary relationship and progress. On trend: This particular finish feels timeless, possibly vintage or repurposed. Lately, there has been a push toward recycled, conscious fashion, so in that respect, this piece feels in line with the current zeitgeist of design. When it comes to luxury design… A bespoke piece, be it for clothing or interiors, always feels like more of a privilege than whatever massproduced product it’s up against. Playing a role in crafting what you wear, or how you live, is the ultimate in luxury. In composition: The sculptural qualities of the lamp are very elegant, giving it a sense of formality. The polished continuity of the fixture against the rough brick background really highlights its simplicity and clean lines. A strong contrast is visually engaging; this opposition inspires dialogue.
CHRISTINA BRYANT TEXTILE MAVEN STFRANK.COM
Pelle’s use of form and material is… Enchanting. Their compositions come across as both deconstructed and refined—I love that apposition. I’m all about taking risks. This is an exceptionally whimsical sconce, and it has much more of an organic shape than I’m used to seeing from Pelle. In that way, I think it’s a risk well-taken. My line of work demonstrates… My love for—and belief in—the beauty of juxtaposing texture and shape. That same quality draws me to the Lure sconce. On trend: Lure’s mix of hard and soft, the sleek metallic with the organic cast flower, is a combination we’re seeing in fashion right now. That, along with the costume-like romance and femininity of the petals, makes this piece very much in style. The rustic, industrial backdrop… Contrasted against these delicate sconces accentuates their sensuality as well as their clean-lined hardware. The way the light is cast toward the flowers creates shadowy silhouettes that echo their shapes, which is really captivating.
STEEL MAGNOLIAS THE PIECE: Lure Sconce THE DESIGNER: Pelle FIND IT: pelledesigns.com THE INSPIRATION: Enlisted for its structural strength yet technical delicacy, the magnolia served as the muse for Pelle’s Lure sconce. A suspended LED light, held by a slender brass arc, illuminates the fixture’s hand-sculpted cast-paper petals.
MARKET / SPOTLIGHT
IN PLAIN SIGHT THE PIECE: Lumenariums in High and Low THE DESIGNER: John Pomp FIND IT: johnpomp.com THE INSPIRATION: Stirred by the idea of creating an environment for light to live, John Pomp captured the beauty of an illuminated cityscape contained within a pair of milky glass-crystal cloches.
RYAN KORBAN
INTERIOR DESIGNER RYANKORBAN.COM
I like the artisanal feel of John Pomp’s work. He is a true craftsman, which is something I am attracted to as a designer. On trend: In a world where design is often over-saturated and everything tends to look the same, I think Pomp’s Lumenariums feel original. I’m constantly searching for pieces that are authentic, and this hits that note. Silhouette is… Often the most important aspect of lighting, and the sophistication of this particular piece is really in its silhouette. When it comes to luxury design… People love great pieces but don’t want their environment to feel too decorated. People are eager for statement items, but are not looking for a polished, matching ensemble. Rather, they want to mix and match; it’s a fresher perspective. In composition: I love the juxtaposition of the lights and the backdrop. It is that perfect combination of something custom and refined with something super undone that sparks emotion. I am always inspired by the intersection of product and environment. Opposites attract. And that could not be truer than in design. This kind of contrast makes people feel—not just see. It evokes emotion that cannot be replicated.
GEO LOGIC THE PIECE: The Wrongski THE DESIGNER: Jean-Pascal Gauthier FIND IT: jeanpascalgauthier.com THE INSPIRATION: Here, a geometric mélange of acrylic, brass, mirror and glass keeps with the suspended and balanced mobile style of Jean-Pascal Gauthier’s portfolio, which is steadily influenced by the Bauhaus movement.
STEPHANIE VON WATZDORF CREATIVE DIRECTOR FIGUE.COM
Jean-Pascal Gauthier’s work reminds me of… The Russian Constructivism movement that started in 1913 by Vladimir Tatlin, along with sculptor Alexander Calder’s work—which I love. It resembles a mobile: I like the harmony of the shapes and the mix of the triangle with the big and small bulbs. I always look to interior design… For inspiration in my own work; both worlds complement each other. I look at proportions, colors, textures, fabrics and overall elegance. In terms of luxury design: For me, quality equates to luxury. Statement piece: Any piece that is unexpected and has an interesting balance and shape to it, like the Wrongski pendant, is a “statement piece” to me. The raw iron and textured background… Juxtaposed with the clean finished lines of this hanging sculptural light fixture is especially striking. I am always looking for the unexpected: Risk can create incredible beauty and harmony. Here, the fixture is set in a surrounding that is totally contrary to what one would assume. The vintage, rusty, antiqued background with the angular, clean metal and modern shape of the lighting fixture is an unexpected contrast.
MARKET / SPOTLIGHT
ROCK STEADY THE PIECE: Sender One Side Lamp THE DESIGNER: Christina Zamora FIND IT: brave-matter.com THE INSPIRATION: Christina Zamora's decision to employ waxed brass to pierce a piece of variegated salt crystal creates a statement-making lamp that ditches convention for something altogether more refreshing.
GEORGE AUGUSTO CREATIVE DIRECTOR STAUD.CLOTHING
Brave Matter’s pieces are… Overtly midcentury and, at times, lean toward 1960s Pop art. In this particular piece… I like that the beauty comes from only two elements: the brass stem and a salt crystal light fixture. Making such a simple piece is deceptively difficult. The mix of materials is… A perfect balance between feminine and masculine. Luxury design used to be… Primarily based on price, but I think that’s changed. Today, it’s about being special and the combination of high and low: the ability to fuse a wide range of elements and include a piece with some emotion or nostalgia. On trend: The midcentury revival exploded in the late ’90s and hasn’t let up since. This fixture fits right in with that aesthetic. In composition: The juxtaposition of the raw environment makes you further appreciate the total refinement of the light fixture. Such a contrast allows you to see certain aspects of each aesthetic with a clarity that would otherwise not be possible.

THE MUST-SEE EVENT IN HOME FURNISHINGS Celebrating 107 years, High Point Market is the world’s largest and most important home furnishings trade show. Each spring and fall, more than 75,000 home furnishings professionals come to High Point to experience the products, trends and innovations—and meet the people—that are moving home fashion forward. We spoke with three leading interior designers to hear what they were looking forward to seeing at the Spring 2017 High Point Market and capture just some of the energy and excitement that make Market Week the fashion week of home furnishings.
ADVERTISEMENT
Corey Damen Jenkins Corey Damen Jenkins & Associates, LLC “I’m excited to see some of the specific 2017 spring colors that were identified by the trend forecasters at Fashion Snoops—particularly the combination of Pantone 19-3921, Pantone 17-4911 and Pantone 15-309. Our firm is coincidentally building a home for one of our clients with these exact colors as the main palette of the first floor. Together they create a very fresh and vibrant color story, but it’s also sexy and sophisticated as well. I’m looking forward to pushing traditional boundaries with these hues. I also really appreciated what Jamie Drake had to say about how fashion and interior design are essentially in a symbiotic relationship. His statement, ‘Most of the rules can be broken if done with sophistication and style,’ should be printed on t-shirts and given out to clients.”
Kerrie Kelly Kerrie Kelly Design Lab “We are so inspired by the Old Havana and Cove trends that Fashion Snoops has forecast for the coming year. With our renewed access to the old-world elegance and excitement of Cuba and our constant desire to be near the coastline, these two color trends are paving the way for a much-anticipated shift in the design world. The Cove color trend speaks to us particularly because of our California roots. Every time we drive down the coast we are inspired by something new—waves breaking against the shore, a beachfront cafe or the laid-back style of our fellow Californians.”
Elissa Grayer Elissa Grayer Interior Design “I attend High Point Market to see and touch everything new in the industry. By being there twice a year I get to experience an incredible world of new products and absorb the talent and inspiration on display around me. I bring that enthusiasm back to my clients! Don’t forget to wear the most comfortable shoes and enjoy all the food and drink the showrooms provide.”

CLEVER DESIGN AND UNEXPECTED SOURCES OF INSPIRATION CONVERT THE HOME’S HARDEST-WORKING HUBS INTO GUEST-READY SPACES PRIMED FOR ENTERTAINING. WRITTEN BY MICHELLE BRUNNER
Just like the best hostesses exude warmth and hospitality so, too, do standout spaces. A home that’s fit for entertaining should make handling a crowd look effortless, especially in its most hightraffic zones. Good flow, eye-catching finishes, high-performing appliances and, of course, comfort are fundamental factors in creating areas that invite crowds to linger. Whether it’s a kitchen built for sipping and socializing around a supersized island, or a powder room with enough pizzazz to make a lasting impression, your home’s busiest rooms should be ready to face the public at a moment’s notice. Here, a look at party-ready spaces and products that are as stylish as they are functional. 160 / LUXESOURCE.COM

RESTAURANT QUALITY SMITH HANES
The details-obsessed visionary behind the look of Atlanta’s hottest eateries, including The Optimist and Le Fat, is known for his warm, industrial aesthetic. For this handsome residential kitchen, designer Smith Hanes used reclaimed materials and earthy neutrals to create an atmosphere that feels both vintage and timeless. smithhanes.com
What can homeowners best learn from restaurant design? The most important thing is the lighting. The ideal plans incorporate multiple light sources on many surfaces, like under the open shelving and in the pantry. The goal is always to put people at ease and make them look and feel their best in their surroundings.
Definitely not for the clutter-prone, this showstopper pantry features custom-made steel-and-glass enclosures, playing off the materials used in the adjoining kitchen.
162 / LUXESOURCE.COM
Describe your signature “soft industrial” look. We use materials that are characteristic of the industrial era, such as metal, glass and brick, to create a variety of textures. Pairing them with lighter colors, like cream, blush, pale gray or even, in this case, wood tones, helps to create a softer, warming effect.
PHOTO: ANDREW THOMAS LEE. STYLING: THOM DRIVER.
Share your vision for the space. The kitchen is meant to function as a place where a large family can gather, so we did an open plan with enough seating for 10 to 12 people. The client had a photo of a wall of cabinets made from old doors and windows; that was the inspiration for the glass pantry.

IN THE NAVY While a simmering pot is usually best kept out of sight from guests, you might want to make an exception for the new collaboration between venerable French cookware company Staub and Food 52. Sporting the on-trend combination of midnight blue with brass accents, the collection is a stylish addition to your stovetop repertoire. food52.com
In recent years, the wall space behind the stove has become the de rigueur place to make an artistic statement in the kitchen. Take the chevron backsplash from Nashville designer April Tomlin, for example, who created the Navajo-inspired design shown here out of MDF covered with fire-safe paint. “I was bored with traditionally used tile,” she says. Open shelves and a snowy white quartz countertop ensure all eyes are on her handiwork. apriltomlin.com

DUTCH treat For this sophisticated kitchen, San Francisco-based designer Nicole Hollis found her muse in an unusual place: a Flemish still-life painting. A moody mix of materials, including steel-framed glass upper cabinets and a gray island topped with Belgian blue limestone, stand in stark contrast with white lower cabinets and a Calacatta Gold marble backsplash. Low-lighting creates ambience and intrigue—the perfect dinner party guests. nicolehollis.com 164 / LUXESOURCE.COM
Ask any chef or caterer: An oversize refrigerator is the unsung hero of effortless entertaining. And with a tray that slides out to accommodate commercial-size sheet pans, the latest built-in model from Blue Star is both workhorse and eye candy— available in 750 customizable colors, including this deep indigo. Its interior is just as attractive as its exterior, thanks to a sleek stainless-steel lining, which makes it not only goodlooking, but better at insulating cold air, as well. bluestarcooking.com

Smoky Rose wallpaper by House of Hackney sets a charming tone for this Studio McGee-designed powder room. A Schoolhouse Electric & Supply Co. sconce and Kohler Purist faucet break up the high-contrast black-and-white scheme with warm, brass accents.
Just because it’s a half bath doesn’t mean it can’t be full of style. Small in square footage but big in personality, powder rooms are the perfect forum to express your individuality and design philosophy—after all, you’ve got a captive audience. One way to make an impression? Let a unique wallpaper guide the overall concept, as designer Shea McGee did in this Salt Lake City powder room. “I fell in love with the vintage vibe of this rose print, which inspired the classic feel of the bath as well as the more masculine black-and-white palette,” she says.

MANOR BORN Forget gloomy relics: Heirloom artworks and furnishings bring a breath of fresh air to the open entry of this 1900s Italianate-style house in Pacific Heights, which was renovated by architect and interior designer Glenda Flaim. 1 / Noble Light: Shine a spotlight on your art with task lighting, so your pieces look great no matter the time of day. This sleek picture light, for example, proves unobtrusive, blending effortlessly with the frame thanks to its matching black finish. 2 / Crowning Glory: Give architectural heft to your painting with a deep beveled edge. This simple but substantial frame lets the painting hold its own in this richly molded entry, complete with wainscoting and a coffered ceiling. 3 / Royal Treatment: Intricate prints tucked away in books deserve the limelight, too. Display your more ornate volumes open-faced as an inviting centerpiece. 4 / Close to Home: Take inspiration from your artworks’ motifs to choose accents to highlight in your interiors, like this heirloom ornamental rug that echoes the painting’s rich textiles.

Some artworks won’t settle for being a wallflower. Designer David Todd Oldroyd made this standout Chad Buck painting the center of attention in this sumptuous living space for a sky-high San Francisco penthouse. 1 / Beyond Borders: Ditch the traditional frame when hanging massive statement pieces for a streamlined feel. Instead, opt for a neutral wall color for a subtle framing effect. 2 / Fringe Benefit: Invite the eye in with contrasting wall treatments. These angled walls veneered in a leathery pommele sapele finish bookend this artful alcove. 3 / Match Point: Make your furnishings as picturesque as your art collection with some sculptural silhouettes. These Kerstin Hörlin-Holmquist wing chairs and geometric plaster lamps, for example, prove just as museum-worthy. 4 / Great Impressions: Play with painterly textures by injecting some lush textiles throughout. The custom silk Edward Fields rug, designed by Oldroyd, in dreamy pearlescent hues reflects the painting’s rich brushwork.

Every room—even intimate, informal spaces—deserves a cultured statement, and designer Ken Fulk delivers just that in this family room in Pacific Heights, thanks to a fanciful floral print: Assuming is Stifling by Stefan Sagmeister. 1 / Outward Bound: Skip the matte and opt for a barely-there border when framing vivid photography, like this slim black frame that lets colors pop without overwhelming the shot. 2 / Garden Variety: Layer your artworks over a textured backdrop for a step beyond basic gallery white. Here, a Victoriana-esque scroll wallcovering by Élitis provides a prim contrast to this witty print. 3 / Fresh Face: Let your art be a standout, allowing its vibrant palette to create a focal point in an otherwise neutral space, such as this one with a custom Verellen sofa covered in a cool gray Perennials velvet. 4 / Full Bloom: Borrow color inspiration from your artwork to plan pictureperfect accessories. Here, the print’s citrusy hues are mirrored in an assortment of fun accent pillows.

November and December bring an onslaught of invites, with champagne toasts, air kisses and general good cheer to follow. ’Tis the season to cast open one’s doors and welcome friends, family and acquaintances into the home. With that in mind, we tapped some of our favorite design and event experts for their advice. For instance, beautiful table settings, like the ones seen here, build a sense of anticipation and announce to guests that they are in for a magical evening. It’s just one of a dozen ways to create a gracious and festive mood. Read on for more in our first-ever Luxe report on entertaining.

Good riddance to the days when the kitchen remained hidden from guests. Today, it’s more common for cookspaces to feature dazzling finishes meant for prime time, as in this downtown NYC loft designed by Jenny Wolf. With old-world herringbone wood floors, dark gray-stained cabinetry and open shelving, the effect is equal parts rustic and industrial. A generous island provides plenty of surface area for guests to congregate and graze. The shining star of the space, however, is the backsplash. “I love an antique mirror wall, and I thought it would be a great way to reflect some of the light from the three large casement windows on the opposite wall,” she says. “Not only does it make a beautiful backsplash, but it’s also surprisingly easy to clean.” jennywolfinteriors.com

ECLECTIC MIX
“Formal, but never fussy” could be the motto for this elegant dining room by Santa Monica, California-based interior designer Jeffrey Alan Marks. “I like to put my own spin on a room this traditional to keep it from feeling too stuffy,” he says. While the detail-rich crown molding was already in place, Marks added wainscot and lacquered the walls deep blue to ground the space, which seamlessly blends old and new. A contemporary light fixture from David Weeks, an abstract screenprint by James Nares and a jewel-toned geometric rug add just the right amount of edge, and go a long way in creating this lush and layered look. jam-design.com

bedside manners
An overnight guest should feel completely at home and pampered at the same time. To that end, designer Blue Carreon follows a simple philosophy: “I like to put as much thought into guest bedrooms as I do for my own room,” he says. One look at his bedroom in Manila, and you can see why this is a winning approach. Dark gray paneled walls create a cocoon-like effect that’s ideal for slumber, while fresh flowers, a water carafe and plenty of reading material make great bedside companions. With a space this inviting, your guests may never want to leave. bluecarreonhome.com

EVOKING A MODERN FARMHOUSE AESTHETIC, A BAY AREA HOME MIXES TRADITIONAL STYLES WITH CLEAN LINES AND FLEXIBLE SPACES. WRITTEN BY LAURA MAUK PHOTOGRAPHY BY MATTHEW MILLMAN
ARCHITECTURE / JONATHAN FELDMAN AND BRETT MOYER, FELDMAN ARCHITECTURE INTERIOR DESIGN / MARIE TURNER CARSON, M. ELLE DESIGN HOME BUILDER / WAKEFIELD MIST, NORTHWALL BUILDERS, INC. LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE / KATE STICKLEY AND GRETCHEN WHITTIER, ARTERRA LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS

hen a couple with three children approached architect Jonathan Feldman about designing a house for their family in the Bay Area, they weren’t interested in making a statement. “Our clients were all about building something that was understated and timeless,” says Feldman, who worked alongside project manager Brett Moyer. “They wanted a house that was partly modern but looked and felt like it had always been there.” Specifically, the couple liked the idea of a modern farmhouse, which would combine the classic style they were drawn to with the flexibility of an open floor plan. “They asked for a family home with areas where they could gather and socialize,” Feldman says. “They wanted something informal, warm and hardwearing.” The architectural duo, together with Santa Monica, California-based designer Marie Turner Carson, devised a home that would accomplish just that. To establish the farmhouse aesthetic and a general layout, Feldman and Moyer, who is no longer with the firm, connected two simple vertical volumes capped with

gabled roofs with a bridge-like form. “It’s a U-shaped house, and the dining room is in the bridge-like volume at the center of everything,” Feldman says. “It’s a multipurpose room and the heart of the house.” Outfitted with a bookshelf system that traverses an entire wall, the space creates a versatile backdrop for family meals, parties, crafts or homework. It also creates a strong indoor-outdoor connection, as three pairs of custom steel-framed glass doors open onto an ample terrace and the yard beyond. “They’re an active family and wanted to engage the backyard in a significant way,” Feldman says. The owners’ penchant for outdoor living inspired landscape architects Kate Stickley and Gretchen Whittier to design the terrace with bluestone pavers to accommodate a sitting area and a fire pit, as well as create a pool area and an edible garden. “When you’re inside, the fire pit on the patio immediately sets the tone for the open flow into the backyard,” says Stickley. “And the fireplace on the back property line continues to draw your eye out to the landscape.” The duo also engaged the landscape by designing a low wall bordering the lawn in the front yard.
Architect Jonathan Feldman and project manager Brett Moyer designed a Bay Area home in a U-shape centered around a dining room, which opens through glass doors to a terrace. Designer Marie Turner Carson arranged furnishings from Gloster’s Havana collection in the outdoor space.
Carson outfitted the entry with a custom iron pendant suspended above a 19thcentury Swedish demilune table and a 19th-century French mirror, both from Galerie Half in Los Angeles. The French oak flooring by Exquisite Surfaces was installed by Big Oak Hardwood Floor.
In the living room, a pair of custom sofas, upholstered with fabric by Holland & Sherry from Harbinger in West Hollywood, California, flank a coffee table crafted with a Versailles parquet floorboard atop a custom iron base. The custom swivel armchairs are dressed with slipcovers made with a Castel fabric.

Steel-framed glass doors by Architectural Iron Works open the dining room to the outdoors. For the flexible space, Carson designed two oak tables, crafted by Malvini in Belgium, that can expand and connect into one 17-foot-long surface; slipcovers made with fabric from Holly Hunt’s Great Outdoors collection accent custom chairs. The iron-and-wood chandelier is from Lucca Antiques in Los Angeles.
“The wall is a modern interpretation of a porch you’d see on a traditional house,” she says. “The clients can sit there and talk to neighbors or passersby or come home from a run and rest there.” For the exterior, Feldman and Moyer wrapped the house with channel-groove cedar siding, painted it a shade of white and employed a slate gray standing-seam metal roof. “It’s a very simple materials palette and recalls the vocabulary of old farm structures,” Feldman says. “We used white and gray because the contrast brings a modern crispness.” And though the style of the architecture may lean traditional, its execution displays some modern-day updates. “By using oversize double-hung windows,” notes Moyer, “the house has more transparency and connection to the outside than you’d find in a traditional home.” When it came to the interiors, Carson found just the right stylistic balance while keeping family function top of mind. “These clients wanted a well-designed interior, but they wanted pieces that could be loved,” she says. “Everything in the house was designed to be lived with daily.” The designer anchored the living room, for example, with a sturdy custom coffee table. “We attached a vintage parquet floorboard to a cubist steel base,” says Carson, who then countered the angular lines with traditionalstyle sofas marked by curved silhouettes. “The sofas are covered with a black-and-white tweed-like fabric that feels like a Chanel suit.” Ottomans upholstered with a dark gray bouclé accent the space. Throughout the home, Carson worked within a palette of neutral-toned textures that complement the understated architecture. “Marie was so good at getting just the right finish on the oak floors and balancing the darker stain with the lighter ones of the handrails, furniture and cabinetry,” Feldman says. “Her deep knowledge of the traditional brought such a richness to the project.” In the kitchen’s breakfast area, Carson covered banquette seats with flax-colored outdoor fabric and arranged chairs with woven rush seats and backs around an LUXESOURCE.COM / 207

antique Swedish table. And in the central dining room, she designed two massive bleached-white-oak tables that can stand apart or fit together to create one long surface. To surround the tables, Carson dressed custom oak chairs with bouclé slipcovers. “We also made a set of slipcovers in a gray linen for a different look and feel,” she adds. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of the house that Feldman, Moyer and Carson designed for their clients is the way that its complex components appear wonderfully simple. “The materials are tied to each other very precisely,” says the project’s builder, Wakefield Mist. “The paneling in the entry aligns with the stair treads, and the exterior paneling is equally spaced across each elevation of the house.” That exacting attention to detail serves to strengthen the classic lines of the architecture. “I want to do things that will be appreciated for a long time,” says Feldman. “At the same time, I’m a forward-looking architect. I don’t want to replicate the past; I want to build for this time and for the future. For this project, Marie, Brett and I really pushed to have the best mix of what’s traditional and what’s modern.”

SMITTEN WITH A 1930S SPANISH COLONIAL-STYLE HOUSE IN SAN FRANCISCO, A DESIGNER CREATES A PERSONALIZED HOME OF HER OWN. WRITTEN BY TERRI SAPIENZA PHOTOGRAPHY BY PAUL DYER
INTERIOR DESIGN / MARIA HAIDAMUS, MARIA HAIDAMUS INTERIORS HOME BUILDER / SHAY LYONS AND NOEL MORGAN, CAIRN CONSTRUCTION, INC.
Designer Maria Haidamus kept the existing entry door and surrounding tile just as it was for her family’s 1930s Spanish Colonialstyle home in San Francisco. She designed an intricate metal gate that opens onto the grounds.
I
t was 3 a.m. in San Francisco when designer Maria Haidamus made an urgent call from France to her husband, Ramzi. She was at a flea market and had found a piece of art for their new home. She needed a measurement pronto. “We had barely moved in and didn’t have much furniture, but I found a large handdrawn map of Paris with amazing detail,” she says. “I woke up my husband and asked him to measure the living room wall. It was the first thing I bought for the house. After that, everything fell into place.” An antique European map was an apt beginning to the old-world-meets-California-cool aesthetic currently found in the couple’s home, which they share with their three

children. Offering sweeping views that reach the Pacific Ocean, the Spanish Colonial-style dwelling was built in the 1930s. “The moment I saw the house, it transported me to a different time and place,” says Haidamus. “The spaces and proportions were beautiful, and the Spanishstyle architecture reminded me of visits my family took to the countryside of Spain and Italy while growing up in Beirut, Lebanon. The bones were exactly what I was dreaming of in a house. I fell in love with it instantly.” Haidamus was eager to tackle the task of designing her dream home within an architectural shell that included vaulted ceilings, iron railings and exposed-wood beams. But she was mindful of marrying her desire to be creative
The first time Haidamus walked into the entrance foyer, which steps down into the living room, she knew all the walls in the home should be painted a warm white. She selected Farrow & Ballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Great White, which allows the architectural details to stand out. The colorful Bokja chair is from Beirut, Lebanon, where the designer grew up.

with the practical needs of a family home. “I wanted my house to be beautiful, but I didn’t want a showcase,” she says. “We entertain a lot, so I wanted it to be comfortable and livable for my family and for guests, but I also wanted it to be aesthetically pleasing.” To achieve this delicate balance, Haidamus took her cues from the architecture, making design choices that would highlight the details rather than compete with them— walls were painted white and furnishings kept clean-lined and simple. The neutral walls became a backdrop for a mix of organic textures and finishes, treasures brought back from travels and touches of saturated, Mediterraneaninspired colors. An existing two-tier chandelier and imposing wood beams accented with gargoyles from a 14th-century Spanish monastery draw the eye 16 feet upward to the ceiling of the living room, which Haidamus designed with the idea of accommodating large groups. The impressive Paris map anchors a seating area that includes an extra-long sofa and a pair of equally expansive custom built-in banquettes on either side of the fireplace. A custom hefty wood coffee table serves as a well-used resting place for clusters of candles, snacks or games, while a fully stocked bar beckons guests to help themselves. At night, recessed lights tucked between the ceiling beams provide a warm glow from above. “Whether we have 100 people or just the five of us in here, there is enough seating to bring everyone together,” says Haidamus. “The upholstery is comfortable and soft, so people are inclined to sit and stay.” The furnishings were kept to a minimum in the dining room to keep the focus on the food, the conversation and the view, says Haidamus, who worked with artist Maya Kini to design something special for the focal wall, which is visible from the entry. The artist came up with a fluid installation of birds in flight. The metal birds are magnetic LUXESOURCE.COM / 217

and easily movable, so the arrangement is constantly changing. “I wanted an element of surprise,” says Haidamus. “People are very drawn to the birds, and they like to move them. It’s always a conversation piece.” Although she kept the majority of the architecture just as it was, Haidamus gave the first-floor powder room a complete overhaul with the help of builders Shay Lyons and Noel Morgan. The tight space was visually expanded with a full-length mirror framed with metal ceiling tiles. Ceramic Spanish tiles were installed on the floor to resemble a rug, and a cylinder-shape Corian sink does triple duty: It takes up minimal space, acts as a sculpture and conceals unsightly plumbing. A Moroccan pendant casts light from above. “Maria worked magic in that room,” says Lyons. “She created a tall, airy feeling in a small space. It looks simple, but only because it was very well-designed.” The most significant changes Haidamus made to the house were in the kitchen, which now holds special meaning for her. “It’s our family’s headquarters,” she says. “It’s where we cook, eat and where the kids do homework. It’s also a great place to entertain.” Green-painted cabinets and a floor made of concrete tiles meant to look like terra cotta balance the coolness of the marble countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Pots that hang from the ceiling behind a recycled wooden beam and a window seat upholstered with a textile brought back from Lebanon lend a casual, comfortable charm. A trio of glass-orb clusters— sculptures Haidamus bought in Syria while traveling with her brother several years ago—not only became light fixtures after she had them wired, but they also provided the perfect finishing touch. “I really cherish the kitchen,” she says. “Every single piece—the pendant lights, the fabric from home, the cookbooks from our travels, the island I designed to fit all five of us—means something to me. It’s authentic, and it’s us, and it’s where we gather with family and friends. It truly is the heart of the home.”
Haidamus painted a wall of the master bedroom with Olympus Green by Benjamin Moore and anchored the space with an Alcova canopy bed and lowprofile nightstands, all by Maxalto. The window shade was made with a Calvin Fabrics cotton.

Artist Jeffrey Nemeroff often takes inspiration from his Outer Richmond neighborhood when creating his paintings, including the in-progress View From Land’s End (right).

’ve drawn, painted or built things for as long as I can remember,” says artist Jeffrey Nemeroff. “I discovered at an early age that the creative process quiets the world around me. It’s hard to think of much else while producing work.” Although his artistic process may be a means of quieting the world, his surroundings are very much a catalyst for the work itself. “My palette is affected by where I’m living, and I’m using more black, gray and white since moving to the Outer Richmond in San Francisco,” he says. “The elements in my neighborhood—the fog, ocean and light—are very important to my art.” Those elements surface in his oil paintings as well as his abstract paintings with collage elements, including a series of ethereal circular compositions formed in random, organic patterns, which will be exhibited at 151 Gallery curated by Levy Art + Architecture in November. To create these abstract pieces, Nemeroff uses oil, acrylic, string and even newspaper or fabric swatches, some of which he collected during his years working as an art director for a national magazine.
Nemeroff at work in his studio (opposite, bottom), which is located in the 1925 house he shares with his wife, Catherine. An unfinished oil on canvas, Kellyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cove, rests atop other in-progress pieces, each measuring 4 feet by 3 feet, in the studio (right).
“The exciting part about painting for me is problem-solving; that’s what drives me forward,” explains the artist. “How can fabric, string, acrylic and oil paint work seamlessly as a unit? Although my abstracts are inspired by my surroundings, I’m creating them not only as a means of expression or to elicit an emotional response from the viewer, but also for the challenge of diving into a composition using various material and resolving it successfully.” To reach that resolution, Nemeroff will sometimes physically deconstruct a given canvas into strings before reassembling it as a new, more textural painting surface. “As an art director, I had to be so detail-oriented, and that certainly carries over to my artwork,” he explains. “But I’m trying to keep things more loose and energetic—spontaneous.” If things look too “stiff,” in his oil paintings especially, Nemeroff will use bolder techniques, smearing the paint on thickly with a palette knife, for example, or using rags, old toothbrushes or even a serrated steak knife to create various effects. This past spring, the artist’s paintings took on a new dimension as a result of a dramatic change of scenery. Nemeroff journeyed to Svinøya, an island in Norway above the Arctic Circle, for an artist’s residency in a hilltop studio that offered panoramic views of the snow-covered mountains and the icy blue sea.

of photos that he took for reference, Nemeroff began to paint landscapes, reaching up to 4 by 7 feet, for the first time in years. “The atmosphere I experienced in Norway influenced me greatly, and I still carry that feeling with me,” he says. “And even though the landscapes have emerged first, I’m introducing abstracts and figures into this series, as well.” The effects of the residency’s creative impact are piled in thick stacks against the walls of his studio, which is currently the dining room of the 1925 house he shares with his wife, Catherine. Working on an easel in the light-filled space, Nemeroff is thoughtful with every brushstroke, as he attempts to recreate not so much the images themselves but the emotions they evoke. “Even though I might be working from a snapshot, it’s the feeling that I want to capture, that memory of the place,” he says. “For me, every painting brings its own challenges, but it’s an activity I can’t imagine life without.”

F
or most of us, there are certain sights and sounds that instantly evoke memories of our childhood homes. The crunch of leaves underfoot on a cool fall afternoon or smoke rising from a grill at a family gathering are all it takes to instantly transport many people right into their old backyards. For one couple with roots in the South, it was likely recollections of a screen door slamming or sipping ice-cold lemonade on a porch swing on a hot summer night that drove the decision to build a home that evoked the spirit of their childhood domiciles. “They wanted to create a house for their children that had the feel and the character of where they both grew up,” says designer Tineke Triggs. “That meant including things like the wraparound porches you’d find on a beautiful old plantation house.” A coveted 1-acre flag lot in Atherton offered up the perfect backdrop. After scraping a 1950s ranch-style

structure, Los Angeles-based architect Tim Barber and senior project manager Kirk Snyder crafted a classically proportioned Georgian-style home with clapboard siding and a cedar shake roof to take its place. The house stretches five bays wide and is marked by a timeless gable over the front door. “There are enough big porches and screen doors to capture the outdoor living feel reminiscent of their youth,” Snyder says. “And fortunately, that idea translates well to Northern California.” The generous property, rimmed with mature oaks and redwoods, was also ideal for carving out play spaces to accommodate their three young children. When it came to siting the house on that property, the architectural duo conducted a series of light studies. “We determined where the trees would cast shadows and decided the optimal placement for the house was the center of the property,” says Barber, who positioned the

pool in the sunniest locale. Then, landscape architect John Dalrymple stepped in. He designed the walkways and driveway and introduced crape myrtle trees near the entry, as the white blossoms would coordinate with the color of the siding. “The wife wanted the landscape to be soft,” he adds, “so there are large grassy sections in front, which continue around to the back and provide softness while connecting the whole house to the landscape.” Barber and Snyder continued the classic feel of the house inside, where the commanding center hall is marked by arches with intricate trim profiles, crown moldings and wainscots. “Throughout the house there are six kinds of casings with similar profiles, but all with different widths and thicknesses,” says builder Erik Hughes, whose company has since merged with another to form Ebcon Corporation/ Hughes Construction, Inc. “This house is unusual for the area because not many projects take into account things like period details anymore.” Within an open layout that “allows for views into several rooms at once,” says Barber, he and Snyder kept up the attention to detail by adding transom windows in the living room and above the
double-hung windows of the dining room. They lined the walls of the family room with 6-inch-wide tongue-andgroove planks and used that classic detail again above the bed in the master suite, which also features a coffered ceiling to distinguish the adjacent sitting area. When it came to furnishings, Triggs saw it as her mission to respect the architecture while still being mindful of the youthfulness of her clients. “I wanted to work with traditional pieces, but not things that felt stuffy or like your grandmother’s house,” says the designer, who utilized transitional fabrics to support that concept. In the living room, for example, two existing sofas were reupholstered with a wool-blend textile with a slight weave. “The subtle texture and blue-griege color have a timeless feel to them and work with the casual tone the owners wanted to establish,” she explains. In the dining room, Triggs created a subtle mix of styles starting with the homeowners’ imposing wood table to lend a sense of history. She paired it with modern chairs sporting a clean-lined geometric profile and then added stenciled draperies for a touch of the unexpected.

Savoy chairs by Thibaut, wearing Stroheim fabric, surround a table from the homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; collection in the dining room. The draperies were made with a Galbraith & Paul linen from De Sousa Hughes, and the hand-knotted rug is by Stark.

Above: In the kitchen, a black La Cornue range complements the custom cabinets by Innovative Casework accented with brass hardware by House of Antique Hardware. The backsplash is lined with ceramic tile by Mediterra Tile, and the soapstone countertops are from Da Vinci Marble. Left: A custom walnut table by The Cottage Table and refinished chairs sporting a Rose Tarlow Melrose House for Perennials textile provide a gathering place for informal meals in the kitchen. The light fixtures are by E. F. Chapman for Visual Comfort & Co.

Left: In the study, a custom leather-upholstered Plantation sofa is finished with brass nailheads. A coffee table by Matthew Chase Woodworks rests on a wool carpet by Stark, and the light fixture is by Ralph Lauren Home for Visual Comfort & Co. Opposite: Triggs appointed the study with Gregorius Pineo’s stately Directoire desk and a custom chair by Plantation. The custom Roman shades were fashioned with a Colefax and Fowler fabric.
“They are not formal people so it was important that every space be approachable,” says Triggs, who painted the room’s woodwork with Benjamin Moore’s Andes Summit for a touch of whimsy. Eschewing anything that might be construed as what she calls “matchy-matchy,” the designer mixed a solidwool fabric for the two sofas in the family room with subtle patterns on the pillows and rug. She kept the master suite predominantly tone-on-tone and selected a check for two upholstered chairs in a sitting area to work in concert with the stripes covering a bench at the foot of the bed. A leaf pattern marks the Roman shades. “Playing with the size of the prints is what keeps the room interesting,” she says. To create a cozy atmosphere for gathering in the kitchen, Triggs designed a custom walnut table in place of a center island. She then finished off the traditional
feel of the space with a farmhouse sink and antique burnished-brass light fixtures. Similarly, in the husband’s study, an antique-style desk, a leather-covered sofa and painted woodwork sporting a soothing moss green establish an old-world tone. “It’s a warm and stately room, and that desk, with its hand-finished walnut top, feels like something that would’ve been passed down through the generations,” notes Triggs. Despite the home’s many traditional elements, the owners’ decidedly modern art collection still hits an important note. “The traditional feel of the house supplies them with a comfort zone,” says Triggs, “and the art speaks to their playful side.” But if there’s any question about the home’s overall intent, the sight of the swing suspended by ropes on the back porch is a reminder that it’s time to slow down and go looking for that pitcher of lemonade.

Above: In the master bathroom, a tub by Drummonds stands on a floor marked by Waterworks tile. The adjacent shower features a Waterworks mosaic tile floor and subway tiles in a classic running bond pattern on the walls. The light fixture is by The Urban Electric Co., and the Rose Tarlow Melrose House shade fabric is from Shears & Window. Right: Armchairs reupholstered with a Colefax and Fowler check provide comfortable seating in the master bedroom. Triggs upholstered a Bailey bench by Jayson Home with a stripe by Elizabeth Eakins to place at the foot of the bed. The Rittenhouse chandelier is by Arteriors.

The house was sited so that the propertyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existing oak would shade the rear porch, where a swing by Vintage Porch Swings sways next to a pair of rush chairs by Redford House wearing a Thibaut fabric. Scenic Scapes installed the landscape, including the salt-water swimming pool, and specified the smaller plantings. Landscape architect John Dalrymple created soft grassy sections around the lot.
