Whimsical interiors that honor their past.
Silicon Valley, CA
Originally built in 1902 for industrialists Daniel and Margaret Drysdale, this California residence has had some other famous occupants—once a haven for suffragette Cecilla Casserly and later the cherished dwelling of legendary decorator Frances Alder Elkins.
Soulfully reimagined by way of a timeless touch of glamour, there's no shortage of whimsy in this historically rich home. From patterns that dance from room to room to a holistic colorstory that is both wildly playful and wholly sophisticated, this home holds your attention with every step. Every corner tells a story, weaving together a tapestry of classic style and romance.
