before & after: san francisco loft makeover


this san francisco loft makeover comes from anastasia at faiella design, who shared a great mural makeover with us last year. anastasia worked with a homeowner in the SOMA area of san francisco to create a home that was warm and modern, using a mix of osborne and little fabrics and affordable furniture from shops like west elm and crate & barrel. i’d be happy to pack up and move into this light-filled space any day. thanks for sharing, anastasia!

while I love my little single story ranch, sometimes I yearn for high ceilings — really opens up some options!

Lauren

I love this apt.–so cute! Do you know who did the huge canvas behind the couch? I’d love to know; that piece is gorgeous!

stephen

I love the horizontal bands of paint on the walls and the curtain treatment in the passageway.

The brass petal

awesome. did a professional photographer take these? the photos are so good. And those blue chairs are awesome. nice job, people

Anastasia

Wow thanks or all the comments! A few quick responses….yes a professional photographer took the after shots, his name is Chi Fang.
The sofa is C & B the Petrie sofa. The Draperies are all custom by Leong Interiors, Doreen is fantastic!!

Laura C.

Beautiful. I’d love to know the source for the runner in the hallway.

Anastasia

Horizontal Stripes are done by Ted Somogyi of Probert Art, Lighting design is Jim Misner, Jim Misner lighting Designs. The coffee table is Jason Lees, Jason Lees Design.

where did you purchase that brown runner in the hall? I want one too!!

michele

Looks great Anastasia! What a transformation. It was fun helping you with this project!

Gwen

Anastasia created a really classy space here which doesn’t have the typical loft-hi tech cold pretentious look…instead it is warm and inviting with quality materials and still accented with sparks (like the pink pillows and deep blue chairs) which give it huge style. She has a great sense of balance -restraint and flair.

Asia

Please, please tell me where you got your couch?!? I have been searching high and low and haven’t found one that is completely perfect until I saw this makeover!

Asia

Apologies, I missed your earlier comment about the couch source. Really great job with the entire loft! I’m inspired!

The runner is from ABC Carpets/San Francisco. Rug in living room is a one of a kind Pakastani Piece from Floor Designs/SF… Original retail value $8K-it was vastly discounted as manufacturer was clearing space for new product!

Christine Schwalm

Really well done. I love the color combination, the rugs–just the overall look. And these pics serve as a great example for how to dress oversized windows.

Chandi

That is just lovely. The drapery and wall stripes make that area look so much bigger. Beautiful.

Lime St

I am seriously inspired by this. I was just starting to lose steam on my own apartment makeover, but this gave me back my mojo. Thank you!

teresa

The blue chairs! For me, it’s all about the blue chairs! And then to see the blue lamp shade… just wow!

chantal

i agree i love the alternating stripes and the waves on the carpet when you enter. Really nice.

Lindsey

This color scheme really speaks to me! I just redesigned my blog and picked gray, purple, and black. Love love love it. I have really been into that dark gray lately. Gorgeous.

Limey

Wow, what an improvement! This looks like it was a challenging space, with its odd angles and high ceilings. It took real skill to make it look warm and cozy and still have an open feel.

Well done!

chocolateandsteel

Great work. I especially love the coffee table you chose. I just went to the website for Jason Lees and what beautiful furniture! You are so lucky to have such a great resource. Well done with all of your color and pattern choices too. It must be so nice to come home to this:)

jennyboo

I would LOVE to know the paint color (pleeeeeeaaase)!!! I have had a love affair with the Petrie since I first laid eyes on it a few months ago. Well done.

Beth

Love it! Can you tell us where you got the blue chairs and the throw pillows?

Gemma

Love the wall color in the living area-can you tell me the name of it? It’s exactly what I’ve been wanting for my bedroom.

Susannah

Love everything! Please tell us the paint colors you used!! Great job!!!

Anika Petrunoff

Wonderful work.
I enjoy and feel inspired by your sense of design aways. Thank you.

kim

Everything fits together so well. Anastasia, could you please share information on the canvas hanging in the living room?

manette

Me too – paint color/source is? Also love the couch – where did you get it? You did a great job, thanks for sharing with us.

Linda

I just found this article. I love it too and agree with Lime St. It has inspired me to make some changes. I love the combination of the lamps. Can you share the sources? Also, love your blog :-)
