House in Colonial Style in San Francisco13 photos

Colonial-style architecture is popular in many U.S. cities, and in California, the Spanish colonial style was particularly widespread. This house in San Francisco is a bright example of that architectural style. Homes built in the Spanish colonial style are typically made of stone, feature tile roofs, arched vaults, and cozy gardens in the back yard. However, the main decorative element of this style—and of this house—is mosaic and hand-painted tiles. These details, along with unusual lighting fixtures and decorative elements, make every interior unique, adding soul and a special atmosphere to it. Take a look at these lighting fixtures or the sofa by the open window — and you'll feel as if you're not in California, but somewhere in Andalusia. In the evening, when the lights come on in the courtyard, you lose all connection with reality — pure magic. This is a very colorful and memorable interior!
