This home looks over a verdant wetlands to the San Francisco bay beyond. The owners are a young family looking to 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 are using this delft-inspired, hand-painted tile as a jumping off place for the kitchen renovation. Mixed hardware and cabinet finishes create a look that appears layered over time, as do the timeless ceramic lighting fixtures.
In the rest of the space, we are adding banquette dining, and a fireplace upgrade that blends mid-century Californian and Mediterranean influences in its tile. The furnishings plan embraces a mix of contemporary and traditional elements in a soft palette inspired by the colors of the bay.
Much more about this project (and most importantly, photos) coming soon…

The downstairs powder room continues the floral motif with a bright splash of tile. Soft green tile floors ground the space, as does a palette of mixed metal finishes and a dark vanity topped in carrera marble.
