San Francisco III turns a 1960s hillside house in San Francisco, CA, United States into a contemporary retreat shaped by Gast Architects. The renovation works with the steep lot and long views while coordinating with Bjørn Design on interiors that support aging in place, from an elevator and concealed lift to a generous outdoor room. Everyday life settles into a calmer, more legible rhythm across the reworked levels.
