Modern Marina Residence | On the Boards

FORMA rebuilt this Marina District home from the ground up, replacing a deteriorating 1920s structure with a fully modern, 4-story residence. Set on a 4,075-square-foot lot along one of San Francisco’s most coveted one-block streets, the 4,000-square-foot home now includes five bedrooms, five and a half baths, and a striking blend of high design and technical performance. Materials such as imported Jerusalem stone and angled Western Red Cedar overhangs define the bold exterior, while the interior features custom walnut cabinetry, a four-story Plyboo accent wall, and a sculptural steel staircase. Amenities include a hydraulic cedar-clad garage door, motorized car stacker, elevator, and a rollamatic retractable skylight that opens to a private roof deck with a hot tub—showcasing a seamless fusion of form and function.
