This "Second Home" in Napa Valley's Silverado Country Club is a tranquil retreat from San Francisco for the clients and their family. This thoughtful renovation harmoniously merges Japanese minimalism with
Scandinavian warmth, creating spaces that celebrate organic materials and tranquil simplicity. Hand-smoothed walls in warm white provide a serene backdrop for carefully chosen elements. Sustainably harvested
white oak flooring flows throughout the home. Natural materials and a neutral palette anchor the home, while the fireplace — clad in timeless stone — becomes a grounding feature that adds depth and tradition to
the modernized design.
The kitchen embodies the Japandi aesthetic with sleek, vertical-grain rift oak cabinetry and an island countertop in deep charcoal. Handcrafted ceramic tiles on the decorative backsplash add subtle texture. Clean-lined
millwork features subtle finger pulls and integrated handles, honoring both cultures' appreciation for unadorned beauty.
The eye-alluring island pendants are an artisanal work of class. Texture and scale join forces to define the entirely ceramic-made pendants. Handcrafted with care, each shade features a hand-painted finish that adds
a unique touch.
The material palette reflects both traditions' deep respect for natural elements and artisanal craftsmanship. The result is a balanced and peaceful haven, where contemporary elegance meets understated tradition,
tailored for relaxation and connection.
