San Francisco Decorator Showcase 2012 – Sneak Peek

With breathtaking views, box beamed ceilings and a double-curved grand staircase, the historic mansion at 2020 Jackson Street in the coveted Pacific Heights neighborhood is this year’s San Francisco Decorator Showcase. The Classic Revival home was designed by Julius Krafft and built in 1902 by Wells Fargo Bank President Isaias Hellman as a wedding gift to his daughter. However, after the 1906 earthquake and fire, the 11,500 square foot home was the temporary headquarters of Wells Fargo.

This year’s Showcase features a roster of both seasoned and emerging designers. Wallpaper, neutral color palettes and extraordinary light fixtures were design trends that kept repeating from room to room.   Here’s a sneak peek at some of the beautiful spaces:
