BAY VIEW BOTANICAL

This home looks over a verdant wetlands to the San Francisco bay beyond. The owners are a young family who requested we update their contemporary mediterranean home with soft color and warm natural textures that mirror the landscape outside. Particularly, the wife wanted florals that felt fresh and clean, so we used a delft-inspired, hand-painted tile as a jumping off place for the kitchen renovation. Mixed metal finishes create a look that appears layered over time, as do the timeless ceramic lighting fixtures.

Just off the kitchen, we added a breakfast nook with a cozy banquet seat and custom white oak trestle table for casual dining. The leafy sconce carries through the botanical theme.

An adjacent powder room charms with a more robustly blooming tile backsplash, and transitional mix of modern tile flooring and traditional vanity.
