ICONS OF DESIGN
San Francisco, California
When selecting a room in a showcase, we choose one with an eye to solving a real world dilemma. In this instance, our room did not provide for electricity in the ceiling whatsoever - a limitation that existed in many rooms in the Millennium Tower.
Our goal was to create an elegant room that was neither contemporary nor traditional in style. It was to be a place that one could linger and feel grounded in, despite living 52 floors above the San Francisco Bay. A beautiful collection of carefully curated art, beautifully lighted by Randall Whitehead, enhances the timeless feel of this space. Note the hypnotic diptych by Bay Area figurative artist Marianne Kolb. (2009)
