A beloved childhood home in Tiburon, California, underwent a contemporary renovation by Chambers + Chambers Architects and Lauren Nelson Design.

The house was taken down to the studs, the layout reimagined by opening up the kitchen and living spaces to allow for better flow, and more rooms were added to accommodate the family’s lifestyle needs.

A love for rich colors, warm wood tones, soft textures, and a modern casual sensibility for this young family drove the design aesthetic.

This childhood home was completely overhauled to offer the family a newly refreshed atmosphere that is warm and inviting with a touch of nostalgia.

What We Love

Blending natural stone, rich timber, and striking sculptural elements, this tranquil home beautifully reflects the warmth and connection of a close-knit family.

We love the soothing color palette of this home and the comfortable yet stylish furnishings throughout.

Although spacious, the home needed open-plan areas and additional rooms. It was stripped to the studs and redesigned with an open kitchen and living spaces for improved flow.

Stone can be found throughout the home, especially marble. Calacatta Vagli was used in the kitchen and bathrooms, Viola in the powder room, Grigio Colemandina for the fireplace, and Naica for the custom breakfast table.
