It's finally ready! The much-delayed Sunset Idea House had a soft opening last Friday, and we were able to tour the space earlier this week. The green abode, located in San Francisco's Mission District, is chock-full of cool products and materials. We especially like the wall in the study/craft room that's made of scraps of walnut wood.
In case you're wondering about some of the products shown in the photo above: The ceiling-mounted task lamp is Artemide's "Tolomeo"; the metal stool is DWR's "Marais" in vermillion (a similar stool can be found at NapaStyle); the table is Blu Dot's "Strut" in dark olive; the Benjamin Moore low-VOC paint color is avocado; and the concrete floor tiles in the adjacent children's bedroom are Ann Sacks/Angela Adams "Argyle" and "Manfred" patterns.
The Sunset Idea House is open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through December 16, 9am-4pm; and January 4-27, 2008. (Note: The house will be closed the weekends of December 21 and 28.)
For more information, call 1-800-786-7375 or visit the Sunset website.

Love the way the floor tiles look, although I would never put concrete tiles in a bedroom. I'll keep those in mind for our kitchen/bath renovations.
I just tore a page from a magazine (or catalog?) that has a similar wall, but the wood is running horizontally and has a little more tonal variation. Love this look! If you have any more info on the construction, can you please post it, or a link?
