2025 San francisco decorator showcase

Beauty Interrupted — Room 6

Designer: Leslie Lamarre, TRG Architecture + Interior Design

Description

This office space is both a sanctuary of creativity and a reflection on the world beyond its walls. At its core, a bespoke parametric desk—flowing seamlessly from wall to work surface—symbolizes the power of collective effort, each layered slice of wood reinforcing the beauty of unity. Above, a trio of hive-like pendants, crafted from corrugated cardboard, transforms humble material into artful illumination. The wallpaper, a bold fusion of classic damask and a commanding bee motif, is disrupted by rebellious crimson droplets—beauty interrupted, a reminder of the chaos in the world beyond. Beneath it all, a hair-on-hide rug in rich crimson hues grounds the space, its organic forms subtly nodding to the delicate balance between nature and design. This room is a statement, a paradox—where luxury meets rawness, order meets disorder, and creativity flourishes in the tension between the two. At the center of it all is the bee—part queen, part worker—both self-assured and relentless in her work to right the wrongs of the world.
