Built in 1904, in the Lake District of San Francisco, CA, this special five-bedroom home had survived the city's 1906 earthquake and was brimming with history. The family who bought the Edwardian property had fallen in love with its period charm and saw the potential to make it perfect for modern family life. However, the new owners didn’t want to do a totally modern renovation; instead, they were looking for a highly livable and deeply personalized space.
Interior designer Caryn Sloan helped the family achieve their new vision for the property. 'The biggest challenge was to create a modern living space for the family while still highlighting the history and character of the home,' she says.
