Villa de Martini

We picked the most gorgeous Spring day to tour San Francisco's Decorator Showcase House, The Villa de Martini built in 1929. The majestic Mediterranean-style villa is perched high atop historic Telegraph Hill and boasts formal European-style gardens and delivers panoramic vistas of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, the Bay Bridge, and San Francisco Bay. Come along with me as I discover the many beautiful and unique rooms which profiles the work of over two dozen of the Bay Area's preeminent designers. The Upper Terrace A ring of charred wood elements conjures memories of fire-scarred tree trunks in the old growth forests across the bay. The Living Room Dining / Kitchen / Lounge *Note to self... dye vintage linen napkins grey! Powder Room Very hard to photograph, but I think my favorite space!  It is truly amazing what you can...
