When it came to the kitchen cabinetry, Mattingly studied deVOL<\/a> and Plain English<\/a> schemas to engineer a \u201ccontemporary English\u201d vibe, expressed through Shaker doors, inset construction, and finished in the moody depths of Farrow & Ball\u2019s Studio Green<\/a>. On the far end of the kitchen, the Innen team created a family area\u2014a place for lounging and playing that\u2019s versatile thanks to the modular Arflex sofa, which can be easily reconfigured.<\/p>\n

Upstairs, the primary suite channels calm luxury while still sticking to historical integrity. Mattingly wanted to create an arched passage to the bathroom, but it would have tampered with the symmetry of an existing ceiling medallion. Tricky surgery was necessary: \u201cOur contractor, DKG Construction<\/a>, was able to take it down, preserve it, and then put it back in center, within the new footprint of the bedroom.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Innen\"Mix<\/p>\n

Mix and match: In the guest bath, a multicolor marble mosaic floor takes a different tune from the Viola marble shower floor and countertops. In Common With sconces<\/a> give the room a soft glow. The cabinet hardware is by British designer Matilda Goad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Mattingly<\/p>\n

Mattingly used Calacatta Monet marble for the standing shower in the primary bath. For more luxurious soaks, there\u2019s a generous cast-iron tub from Signature Hardware<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While much of the house hums on a note of serenity, Mattingly incorporated some punchier moments in the additional bathrooms. A cabinet under the stairs was transformed into a Harry Potter\u2013like powder bath, which bursts with bold red walls. Mattingly calls the downstairs washroom \u201cthe most London-inspired bathroom\u201d in the house, thanks to its checkered marble floor and Water Monopoly vanity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When it came to the kitchen cabinetry, Mattingly studied deVOL and Plain English schemas to engineer a \u201ccontemporary…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1387,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[2062,2060,101,103,102,104,106,105,2061],"class_list":["post-1386","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-francisco","tag-domestic-home-tour","tag-home-tour","tag-san-francisco","tag-san-francisco-headlines","tag-san-francisco-news","tag-sf","tag-sf-headlines","tag-sf-news","tag-web-exclusive-home-tour"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1386","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1386"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1386\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1387"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1386"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1386"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1386"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
