Instagram post 2227913745255194934_4430677367 The chair, shown in Italian Berkshire Cocoa leather with Brushed Brown Oak finish, is offered in 21 leather upholstery options and four oak finishes. From RH Beach House.
Instagram post 2227906433149012983_4430677367 Seven years ago, when Kentfield architect Chris Parlette was asked to improve the facade and remake the interiors of a roughly 5,000-square-foot six-story Mill Valley house with wooded valley views at the foot of Mount Tamalpais, his greatest challenge proved to be the vertiginous site. The climb up dozens of concrete retaining steps to the front door two-and-a-half stories above the foundation gave even seasoned contractors pause. “Most of them took one look and fled,” Parlette recalls. Here’s the remodeled master bedroom and closet on the mezzanine level between the top floor dining room and the open-plan living area. For more photos and the full story, click the link in our bio.
Instagram post 2225714513232266031_4430677367 Trailers often indicate how good a movie will be, and perhaps chef/restaurateur Peter Hemsley’s experimental Palette restaurant/gallery/store that opened last spring in San Francisco’s SoMa district is just such a prelude to a more permanent Palette due to open this year. Learn more about how this former S.F. dining hot spot has been revived with bold colors — and a concept that blurs the lines between dining, art and shopping. Full story and more photos in bio.
Instagram post 2225713013139509886_4430677367 Made by NICOLEHOLLIS for McGuire, the Euclid daybed features distinctive angled legs in natural or ebonized oak and a wrapped Lampakanay seat in matte black or natural finish (as shown).
Instagram post 2221504456668070589_4430677367 In essence, muralist Rafael Arana’s innate talent for beautifying spaces parallels what his Salvadoran parents do for a living: housekeeping and window washing. ‘I knew nothing about the design world,’ he says. But, born and raised in San Francisco alongside his two sisters, this 30-year old was always drawn to doodling. Encouraged by teachers in grade school, ‘I saw that I could be an artist. I saw that it was possible,’ he says. He went on to study art at UC Santa Cruz and, armed with a degree, he looked forward to being a fine art painter — until a serendipitous introduction to interior designer Ken Fulk’s home-staging business in 2012 spun him into a different, wider world.

Instagram post 2221496779607094875_4430677367 At age 90, Sir Kenneth Grange, a founder of the design collective Pentagram and design director of the British Anglepoise company, has created Type 80, a new line of Anglepoise lamps that have timeless profiles and innovative “halo” features that allow light to “spill” over their conical shades. The table lamp has sprung joint mechanisms, cables routed through the arms and an on-shade on/off switch. The wall sconce and ceiling rose options are easy to install. Ultra-matte colors include rose pink, pistachio, gray mist and matte black.
Instagram post 2219976371518841365_4430677367 Before the expanses of glass, board-form concrete walls and ipe floating deck converged on this site to form a contemporary gem of a home dubbed Winged Retreat, there was Joshua Aidlin and his tent. The architect, a partner at San Francisco firm Aidlin Darling Design, came with his camping gear to the empty lot in the scenic Carmel Valley residential development known as Santa Lucia Preserve, ready for a round-the-clock visit: “You want to understand how the light and wind and landscape features evolve from complete darkness to sunrise, how that changes throughout the day, and how it again changes at dusk.” For more photos and the full story click the link in our bio. 📸: @matthewmillmanphoto. 🖊: @anh_minh.
Instagram post 2219972043374683031_4430677367 The 1898 German luggage company Rimowa, whose distinctive designs include 1937 ribbed aluminum luggage inspired by aircraft construction and similar cases made of polycarbonate since 2000, is now a part of the French LVMH luxury brand, which has opened a tiny new Rimowa store in San Francisco’s Union Square area. Housed in a historic build- ing, the new 1,400-square-foot space features a luggage carousel design that has aluminum and polycarbonate details. Polycarbonate luggage can be personalized with in-store heat embossing. Alongside new sage, saffron, coral and slate cases, look for vintage limited-edition pieces from the brand’s archive on display.
Instagram post 2215643548599406297_4430677367 Michelin-starred chef Claude Le Tohic’s San Francisco patisserie/ bistro/bar/restaurant, in a narrow six-story Beaux Arts Edwardian near Union Square, is called ONE65 for its address: 165 O’Farrell Street. Four eateries stacked one on top of the other include the bright street-level French-style patisserie and boutique (with pastries and chocolates made upstairs), and above it the bistro and grill, the dark-walled Elements bar/lounge and O’ restaurant (think “water” in French), the latter with two private dining spaces and a sixth-floor kitchen. Designed by San Francisco’s Marc Dimilanta of D-Scheme Studio, the four casual-to-fine French culinary spaces — linked by a system of dumbwaiters — have integrated design features by Christian Andrade. Art alludes to the elements of water, fire, air and earth.
