Rooms that feel collected, not catalogued.
Interior styling and decorating for San Franciscans who want a home with character — without luxury-firm minimums. Clear, flat pricing, and trade discounts passed straight to you.
Most booked
Signature Refresh
A fuller transformation — furniture, art, lighting and styling, start to finish.
Whole-Home Refresh
Every room, one point of view. For a new place or a long-overdue reset.
À la carte: Quick Consult · On-Site Styling Day · Sourcing Session
Founding-client rates for projects booked in Fall 2026.
02 — Vintage Bolo Co.
One-of-one bolo ties, built from antique finds.
Edwardian brooches, Limoges miniatures, Italian micromosaics — sourced from Alameda Flea, the Haight, Paris and Italy, then set on braided leather. Every piece is numbered and named.
No reproductions, no restocks. Once it's gone, it's gone.
03 — Ceramics
Made by hand, glazed by feel.
Small, useful pieces for the kitchen and table — speckled clay, earthy glazes, and the occasional happy accident from the kiln.
04 — Photography
Wherever the light lands.
Forty countries and counting, plus the small still lifes of a San Francisco life. Street corners, summer concerts and quiet mornings at home, shot on my Fujifilm.
About
Hi, I'm Sanoma.
Corporate strategist by day, designer and maker the rest of the time. Years in tech and an MBA from Oxford taught me how things work — vintage markets, cozy rooms and a good camera taught me what I love.
When I'm not styling a space or setting a brooch on leather, I'm DJing parties, tending the garden, or cuddling with my furry family.
