Name: Jocelyn
Location: San Francisco
There is no one main inspiration for my home. I feel that it’s a collective of my interests, background and style, which is constantly evolving. I am always discovering new architecture, design, music, art and fashion that influences and inspires my style. The best thing about creativity is that we get to reinvent ourselves all the time.
I am instinctively drawn to objects and the organization of space. Through my background in art I am hugely influenced and inspired by science and nature, and collect objects that reflect this.
My true passion is furniture and I have been designing pieces for 13 years. Some of my favorite pieces are my own. I have an addiction to collecting furniture pieces.
The biggest challenge this space poses (aside from not having a studio) is curbing my antique/ thrift store, flea market and ground score impulses because the space is so small. I really have had to control that urge to drag everything home thinking that I can totally do something with it. My second challenge is sharing my space with my 80 lb puppy, Superdog, who does not share the same level of design.
Thanks, Jocelyn!

That chest of drawers looks disgusting.
This is pretty amazing. I disagree with ScottieG about the chest of drawers; it looks great.
I love the collection of vintage bottles.
love the drawers, hate the awkward positioning of the double frames over the bed. Way too close to the pillows. Makes it feel cramped.
I really like the table with all the spindly legs!
There's probably a more tactful way to say you don't like something in someone's home, no?
Anyway, I think the dresser is really interesting and I like the table with the leg collection too! It's nice to see a place with personal and DIY touches, good change of pace from the usual collection of showroom furniture. Great job!
Not so sure about the dresser - I would probably absent-mindedly keep trying to wipe it up. BUT, that table with the multiple legs is really cool. I like the moodiness of this place. A nice change from the standard AT home full of Ikea, mid-century modern andCB2 stuff (that includes my place). Thanks for sharing!
This post makes me want to put a little more edge in my own decor. Love it!
Oh, I love this. I don't know how to describe it, but this feels like that Hollister-sisters-house but done CORRECTLY. Their house was WAY overdone but this is just enough.
I love drip marks on the drawers and the anatomy art. And unlike Little Pieces, I think the frames over the bed look great.
I am not usually into this type of style but I think this is executed well.
Wow.... it's like Goth without the black...
A really interesting and engaging aesthetic.... It makes you want to go deeper into it to see how far it goes.....
I like the chest of drawers. It's as if the horse about it bleeding. Very dramatic and unique.
I like it! I can see how easy it would be to get creepy and crowded, though. Your showing great restraint. Have you tried renting some shared studio space?
OK, I meant "you're", not your.
Love the chest of drawers...how did you do that???
What a great space! Love your collections :)
The mood of the space is very gothic and dramatic with out going overboard. I really like it.
I'm not a huge fan of the chest of draws though.
LOVE it. The table and chest are fantastic. Full house tour, please.
I really like this - it's dramatic, but not overboard. Do you mind sharing the paint colors you used on the walls?
It's certainly interesting.
That makes it sound like I don't like it and I'm trying to say something nice. Actually, I do like it a lot, some things about it more than others, but more than anything, it's DIFFERENT.
I love MCM and Crate & Barrel and DWR and the whole nine yards, which is why I find Apartment Therapy to my liking. But that doesn't mean I don't like to see something creative and out of that mold once in a while.
Very San Francisco! From me, that's a big compliment since I'm in love with the city.
One thing that puzzles me though. When I moved here, all the locals told me to NOT put anything over the bed that might conk me on the head during an earthquake. Aren't you afraid the frames will do just that?
Um, I have to agree with whoever said "it's like Goth, without the black"...kind of reminds me of a movie set. It's not to my taste, but I do love the consistency. There is something about a cohesive theme that I recognize can be very model home in some instances, except when it is an authentic reflection of the homeowner, like here.
The chest of draws looks great, shows creativity. No cookie cutter this home. We could all take a leaf of paint drip out of your book!
awesome. Feels like an artist's home, which I love. Hope to see more of it. Drip drawer rocks and so does the spindle table.
Great love the paint drip chest of drawers- really different. Well done
Add me to the list of people wanting to see the full tour. I love what I've seen so far...
i LOVE LOVE LOVE the ""medici family" art and the "knobbly tree" art, OMG! i want them so badly! you have made me so jealous. They are fantastic. So wish they were in my house,damn it,Jocelyn you are a very lucky girl and you have a specky horse head and a bunny as well. I have none of these things. The injustice! *folds arms,shakes head*
