In this 1883 Pacific Heights home, LMID crafted “the best of both worlds” with a rich interplay of tradition and modernity, making for a space that is both approachable and sophisticated. While honoring the home’s historic Victorian details—ornate moldings, wainscoting, and a carved newel post—Lizette introduced bold contemporary elements. A reimagined fireplace in rough-cut marble, a suspended brass bar cabinet, and sculptural modern lighting fixtures provide dramatic contrast and sophistication.

In close collaboration with the clients—who developed a passion for collecting art along the way—Lizette transformed each room into a layered visual story. Neutral walls paired with unexpected materials, asymmetrical compositions, and subtle textures allow the home’s classic architecture to shine anew. The result is a seamless, soulful blend of past and present, tailored for family life and creative exploration.
