The homeowners, originally from France, brought with them a cultivated aesthetic shaped by Parisian elegance—romantic yet restrained, timeless yet intimate. This renovation honors that sensibility, translating it into spaces that feel both distinctly European and comfortably Californian.
This renovation at San Leandro is not just a partial upgrade—it’s a celebration of personal identity and quiet luxury. A reminder that even the most utilitarian spaces can reflect a deeper sense of home, history, and place.
A Ground-Up Reinvention
Both the master and common bathrooms were fully gutted, allowing for a complete reimagining of spatial layout, infrastructure, and detail. From the framing inward, every layer was replaced and rebuilt to meet today’s performance standards—while making room for beauty to lead the experience.
Materiality & Craft
The finish palette evokes the subtle luxury of a Paris apartment—featuring custom cabinetry, elegant tilework, and designer fixtures selected for their balance of classic lines and modern performance. Each surface, joint, and installation was executed with precision, ensuring that craftsmanship matched the quality of every chosen element.
