At Home with Chef Tyler Florence
San Francisco Chronicle: 11.19.08

11-20-chron1.jpgWhen Tyler Florence isn't taping his Food Network show in New York City, he calls a 1926 Craftsman bungalow in Mill Valley home. Surrounded by trees, near a creek, it's a peaceful retreat for the celebrity chef -- who must need a sanctuary as he juggles writing cookbooks, hosting a television show, opening a kitchen and store, winemaking, all while also preparing to open a restaurant. The home incorporates vintage pieces; for instance, the dining room table is made from an antique printing press and a 1,000-pound piece of marble.

Wow. I absolutely love the black and white wallpaper (or is that a chalkboard?) in the kitchen. Any idea where that's from?

It is a beautiful space! Kudos to Florence for turning his passion, skill, and talent into something that earned him something as gorgeous as that.
