531 Bryant Interiors
The interiors of 531 Bryant reflect the industrial context of San Francisco's SoMA neighborhood.
531 Bryant is a new six-story office development offering 50,000 SF of Class A office space in San Francisco's vibrant Central SOMA neighborhood. The building's lobby is designed to reflect neighborhood's industrial past and complement architectural language of the structure's striking, geometric copper-gridded exterior facade. The result is a loft-like experience with generous, 20' floor-to-floor ceiling heights and an interiors approach that embraces rectilinear geometry, juxtaposes industrial and luxury materials, and utilizes a warm, jewel toned palette to craft cohesive visual flow from the exterior to the interior.

The building's architectural elements find their counterparts in the interior's metal accents, warm palette, and linear geometry, creating a cohesive visual flow from the outside in.
A cantilevered reception desk crafted from interlocking volumes of white Calacatta marble and brass anchors the entry.
Behind, a porcelain tile wall with spiderweb veining contrasts with the industrial concrete floor and ceiling, offering a playful juxtaposition of materials.
Permeable walls of floor-to-ceiling white oak slats offer a warmth and emphasizing ceiling heights while allowing privacy to the back of the house.
Light floods from oversized, studio windows, a feature embraced by the lobby's open plan and permeable walls.
Steel-tube framed chairs echo the space's industrial theme, while red upholstery provides a pop of color.
Low, rounded seating offer a soft contrast to the linear design, tall ceilings, and solid stone coffee table. Above, a delicate lighting fixture of 10-sided, gem-cut spheres hang at unique, predetermined lengths for an organic, cascading look.
Handel Architects designed the exterior of 531 Bryant to relate to the neighborhood's industrial past with large windows in muscular metal frames.
