Interior designer Louis Rambert conceived the space to feel like a living room, with shoes beautifully displayed on floor-to-ceiling shelving that encircles the shop. Original prints by Pablo Picasso preside over stately antique furnishings by the likes of Carl Aub\u00f6ck and Josef Frank, while antique silver pieces from Tiffany, ceramics by Judy Wong, and other intriguing rarities are thoughtfully sprinkled throughout.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, Margaux co-founders Alexa Buckley Roussel and Sarah Pierson are thrilled with their newest brick-and-mortar\u2014the brand\u2019s third, following locations in New York City and Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s easy to fall in love with San Francisco, and finding this space on Fillmore Street took a stroke of both luck and serendipity,\u201d says Pierson. \u201cWe wanted the store to reflect the ethos of our brand\u2014a just-right balance of style and comfort\u2014with a space that\u2019s as elevated and inspiring as it is inviting and comfortable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>En pointe, indeed. <\/p>\n<p>\/\/ 2105 Fillmore St. (Pacific Heights), <a href=\"https:\/\/margauxny.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">margauxny.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                New Presidio Heights salon On the Other Hand nails the art of the manicure.<\/p>\n<p>        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"8820e\" data-rm-shortcode-id=\"7a5a46f3981dce041c5071edfdf2d0ef\" data-rm-shortcode-name=\"rebelmouse-image\" class=\"rm-shortcode rm-lazyloadable-image \" lazy-loadable=\"true\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20899%20599'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-runner-src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1770231847_431_image.jpg\" width=\"899\" height=\"599\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>(Courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DRDyXuqkY-o\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">@otohnails<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>With an MBA from The Wharton School and years of management consulting under her belt, Victoria Huang may not fit the mold of a typical nail salon owner. But armed with a clear business plan, a passion for polish, and a desire to rewrite the rules, her new San Francisco salon On the Other Hand (OTOH) is poised for success.<\/p>\n<p>Located on Sacramento Street, the salon\u2019s goals are simple: use healthier products, deliver high-quality manicures and pedicures, and pay living wages. \u201cWe want to prove that design, ethics, and beauty can coexist beautifully, offering nail experiences that feel as good as they look,\u201d says Huang.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, if creative manis, meticulous pedis, and long-wearing polish\u2014gel and non-gel alike\u2014are on your beauty bingo card, look no further than OTOH. In addition to offering quick-dry, long-lasting Dazzle Dry, the studio features a range of cool, cutting-edge finishes\u2014most of them non-toxic and\/or vegan\u2014including syrup, magnetic, and chrome.<\/p>\n<p>Full disclosure: I tried the Dazzle Dry myself, and as a short-nailed, perpetual manicure-ruiner, I was genuinely blown away.
