Modern design is often accused of being all polish, no poetry — a touch too sleek for its own good. But every so often, a room like this comes along, reminding us that restraint and richness aren’t opposites, but two sides of the same coin.
Tucked inside a 100-year-old Tudor in San Francisco is a dining room so saturated in green, it’s made us a little green ourselves. The project comes from Atelier Oleana, the local design studio helmed by Anu Jain, a trained lawyer, former tech executive, and now, a design name worth knowing. She’s earned a reputation for merging historic architecture with fresh, unexpected details, and this project, with its carved beams, leaded glass, and layered textures, proves the point.
