What was one of the biggest challenges you faced in furnishing your small home? Our biggest challenge was where to put the TV as we did not want it in the bedrooms. To solve this challenge we decided to mount a projector on the ceiling and use a large retractable screen to project on. This turned out to be a great solution as it doubled as a window shade. After building a small box to hide it, you couldn't even tell it was there. We actually liked it so much we put one our master bedroom as well Minus the projector of corse.
We started looking for this solution in all the usual spots Dwell, Apartment Therapy, McMaster Car but I found the screen while skimming through a B&H Catalog and the beauty of it is all 3 screen cost less than $300 Bucks!

Breathtaking view, I almost missed the beautiful interior.

Wood flooring on the ceiling in the bathroom is pretty neat.
As a whole it isn't really my style but you have beautiful bones - Congratulations.

My gosh that is a stunningly gorgeous place. It doesn't look small to me. You were correct to decorate minimally, the view is enough. I am insanely jealous.

So streamlined and modern and that view is ridiculous...in a good way of course.

My favorite thing about this house is the way the pendant lamp does double duty as Moon.

This might be my favorite! It made me happier just seeing all that light and color. So well done.

Oh wow, love this place and what I love about it is the judicious use of color. By keeping it largely white and then pairing it w/ the Zebrawood flooring helps to keep it all warm but not darkening it much if at al then using pops of bright green and ultramarine or lighter shades of blue w/ brown, it all works wonderful.
Your general style is one I like very, very much indeed. It all seems to have a cohesive feel to it.
And that view, it puts my view to shame and it's a nice view in and of itself, just not an in your face kind like this, wow.
I'm actually in aw of it all.

I really like the bed linen, also the splashes of green throughout.

I love the bathroom. Is the tile Heath Ceramics? Also, I'm looking for a similar vanity/sink/faucet. Who makes these?

Wow. That first photo makes me feel like I'm in a Bond movie. Love all the nature elements and color-scheme you brought inside.

OMG - I live in SF and am about to move. I want to know where this place is. Are there comparable places around you?

I wish I'd had a place like this when I lived in SF! Not that I could have afforded it. It's beautiful. I especially love that bathroom. And the view is killer.

Love how you made it modern and warm at the same time. Gorgeous place and my favorite view in the city!
view SFali's profile
That is a million-dollar view...but I don't think it'll help you win "small cool." It would have been better to post another image of what's cool about your small space. It is beautiful!
view sally305's profile
This place is amazing! I don't even like green and I love the green accents as well.
jmoeschler,
I think the vanity/sink/faucet look are from Ikea. However, I browsed their website and it seems that they no longer sell that faucet.

Beautiful home. I LOVE the splashes of green. Although I do agree I would rather see another picture of the interior rather than of the view.

Each element-green/steel/zebrawood-come together to great effect! The amount of natural light and the view are stunning. Great work!

A fantastic apartment to go along with a fantastic view. The use of this space is so unique. It gives the feeling of a much larger apartment. The pull down TV screen is a great idea.
Love those zebra floors.

A perfect blend - utilizing the fantastic view to dramatize the clean design. Would love to see the nighttime view, I'm sure it's even more dramatic.
Great use of designing everything cohesively.

It's not my style (I prefer a men's club look; leather chairs, bronze statues, oriental rugs, antique walnut tables, etc.) but it looks great and it's very nice so I gave you a thumbs up.

What!?!? I am overwhelmed. When I saw the first picture I thought it was some sort of digitally generated image of what a perfect apartment would look like. It's my fantasy (though not in SF), I'm glad it's your reality.

Ditto with tarynitup! At first I was pissed because I thought someone had made a fake house using photo shop, but no... it's just that classy. Right out of a magazine!
Is this your main residence or a second home?

I'm sure you have heard it enough but this apartment is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! It's so nice to see so many splashes of the bright green, it's my favorite color.

Love love love the splashes of green everywhere. Makes it very cohesive. And it's my favorite color. I have it as my main wall color, but am thinking next time I need to use it as accents all over.

I was there when Jordan and Larissa first purchased this small apartment. It was dark inside and nothing interesting beside the spectacular view. Now the space feels much bigger and light full than ever...with the great touch of the best happiest designer family that I know of! I love you guys..miss you a lot! :)
