Grant K. Gibson



Grant K. Gibson started his own design business in New York in 2002.  Now located in San Francisco, his popularity only continues to rise and we seem to be reading his name everywhere!  The Grant K. Gibson website features links to an amazing design portfolio, a fantastic blog and even a shop!  I love the preppy style of Gibson's designs...  his style seems formal yet comfortable, utilizing vintage finds and comfortable furniture.  And, each space features something a little unexpected. 











Last week, Gibson's one-bedroom rental apartment was featured the New York Times.  Yes, rental.  It's phenomenal, see for yourself...




When Gibson found the place in 2007, it looked nothing like this (how could it?).  But, the neighborhood reminded him of his previous Upper West Side neighborhood in New York City, and he instantly felt smitten by the light shining through the windows.  He made a deal with the landlord, and in exchange for 2 months of free living, Grant would renovate the place.  Gibson sanded and stained the wood floors, brought in window treatments and built a banquette in the large bay window.









His bed is from PB Teen!  Gibson added an upholstered piece to the headboard (done in a camel mohair) to make the bed a bit more comfortable...







The Grant K. Gibson SHOP has some beautiful pieces...  Here are my favs:
