Dining Room
A vivacious wallcovering, Fromental's Lotus and Carp, helps get the party started in this San Francisco dining room. John Boone's Florence chairs with a Greek chair by Thomas Pheasant for Baker, all in Travers's Marvalla, banish formality. A Eucalyptus chandelier by Ochre hangs above. The Halden console, Bernhardt while the Classic Oval dining table is by Baker.
Bar Cart
A midcentury bar cart stocked with vintage barware rolls from dining room to living room.
Kitchen
Orange makes its way from the dining room into the kitchen on the Urban Electric Co.'s Poppy hanging lanterns and Hollywood at Home's How to Marry a Millionaire barstools, with cushions in Galbraith & Paul's Small Star. The room is painted in airy off-whites: Feather Down on walls, trim in White Dove, and Floral White on the ceiling, all by Benjamin Moore. Pietra Grigio stone tops the perimeter counters, but the island has glossy brown granite. The wainscot and floral backsplash tiles are by Ann Sacks, complete with water works faucets. The refrigerator is by Sub-Zero, and the oven, range, and microwave are by Viking.
Living Room
Rich purple and blue tones add depth to the palette in the living room. The Barrington armchair from Jasper is covered in a soft purple ikat by Peter Dunham Textiles, the stools by Lawson-Fenning are upholstered in a Kravet vinyl, and a vintage brass coffee table sits atop an antique Khotan rug from Stark. Madeline Stuart's Cecille armchair in Jed Johnson Home's Parterre fabric is used on the reverse side. The custom sofa is covered in Holland & Sherry's Pili, while the curtains are in Raoul Textiles' Miranda fabric.
Daybed
A daybed with a pullout trundle, upholstered in Nobilis's Scoop, is a space for reading and sleepovers. The lampshade and pillows are in Katie Leede & Company's Menna fabric.
Powder Room
The bronze tones in the powder room wallpaper, Studio Printworks' Edo Pines, inspired strong gold accents, such as a Beaten Metal sink from the Stephanie Odegard Collection for Viya Home, and the Kohler faucet. The cabinet is painted in Benjamin Moore's Dry Sage.
Family Room
"If a dog wants to tear around, so what?" says Moran, describing the durability of the family room's sofa and club chair by George Smith, covered in a Jane Churchill fabric. The curtain fabric is from Katie Leede & Company, while the Curtis coffee tables are from Dwell Studio.
Master Bedroom
The master bedroom's headboard, in Romo's Montreal, elegantly pairs with a vintage tapestry blanket from Sue Fisher King. The Veronique sconce hails from Remains Lighting.
Master Bedroom
The master bedroom gets a Moroccan touch with a daybed upholstered in Carolina Irving Textiles' Patmos Stripe Reverse and an Inlay table from Horchow. Paisley curtains in Martyn Lawrence Bullard Design's Agra become a rich wall of blues and greens. "It's beautiful and fresh at night," says Moran. Barbara Barry's Simple floor lamp is from Circa Lighting, and the carpet hails from Stark.
Master Bathroom
In the master bath, the Lara mirror by Made Goods picks up the shimmer of Ann Sacks's Profile Segmented Hex tile.The Henry fittings are by Waterworks.
Daughter's Bedroom
The daughter's bedroom is painted in Benjamin Moore's Misty Lilac. The headboard is in Raoul Textiles' Coverlet, and the Bungalow side table is by Serena & Lily.
