What does it mean to live in a 350-square-foot space in the middle of downtown San Francisco? It means that Rachel Gant and Andrew Deming have killer views from their 11th floor apartment. It means Saturday afternoon parties with friends that start with gin punch and end on the rooftop, soaking up the sun. It also means that they don’t have room for a couch. For the past four and a half years, however, they’ve managed to make the space work, frequently rearranging items to accommodate new vintage finds and gifts from friends. Though they say their favorite thing about their home is the view, the location is pretty amazing, too. Weekends are spent walking around the city or taking day trips out to Healdsburg or Mill Valley. Together Rachel and Andrew founded their company Yield, a design house dedicated to producing products they want to see in the world – from bags and tabletop goods to small furniture pieces and fine jewelry. Earlier this year they launched Endswell Collection, a line of gold rings for men and women. Thank you, Rachel and Andrew! -Shannon
Image above: “We like to fill our home with meaningful objects,” Rachel says. “Most are either thrifted and come with a story of their own, and most others are gifts from friends and family. The painting above our bed is a gift from our friend and fellow CCA grad Nate Masse. The quilt was made for us by Andrew’s grandmother in South Carolina patterned with the classic Norwegian Selbu Stars.”
Image above: “This credenza probably takes up more room than any piece, but it brings so much character we were happy to make room. The vase is a hand painted vintage find from our visit to Saint Augustine, FL near where Andrew grew up.”
Image above: “Meals are incredibly important to us, whether it’s just a quick breakfast or a weekend gathering, they are our time to recoup. (Cup is vintage, cutting board is IKEA, plate is Heath Ceramics)”
