Reimagining a classic San Francisco Victorian home for modern living.

Dolores Charmer is a thoughtfully updated Victorian-era home, turning a traditional choppy layout into a modern, yet timeless floor plan.

The new design applies a transitional palette that blends traditional details with bold colors and raw, natural materials, creating a strong, cohesive design. Marble countertops, rich blue millwork and patterned tiles make a bold statement in the kitchen. Oak flooring throughout and polished concrete on the bottom floor balance modern and traditional elements.

A new roof deck over the ground floor addition creates an outdoor space off the main living area, enclosed by folding glass NanaWalls for seamless indoor/outdoor living.

“This is an absolutely exquisite use of an existing century-old hay barn. A daring and whimsical insertion of mirrored, conditioned boxes into a salvaged, slatted barn creates a beautiful respite from the wine country summer. The careful application of mirrors amplifies the rustic while avoiding the trivial game of material contrast. The correspondence with the landscape is wonderful. This is architecture for the soul and mind.”
