The subtle American modernity

San Francisco is one of the most famous cities in the world, partially because of its iconic bridge. It’s the dream travel destination of many people and a setting of countless films – it truly lives up to its name, the Golden Gate. Combined with subtle details and a piano, this design reflects the very spirit of the lively, cheerful Californian city.

Decorating interiors with images of famous cities has recently become more popular. Even though not everyone has had a chance to see these sights with their own eyes, the views still feel familiar thanks to cinema and pop culture. Many associate such places with romanticism, action and adventure. Film buffs dream to meet there with their favourite actors or directors while travellers wish to expand their souvenir collections with a trinket from the city. Famous cityscapes make for wonderful wall decorations, since they match many other interior design elements and can be used to capture some of the unique atmosphere of the streets they depict!

San Francisco is of course known for the bridge but also for the buzz that fills its every corner – it’s the city of music that combines jazz, rock and punk with folk rhythms from all over the world. It’s a unique melting pot where people and ideas meet and interact. The city has witnessed the birth of countless groundbreaking ideas, unforgettable events and some of the largest trade fairs. It’s no wonder that the famous bridge appears in so many artistic photographs and designs – perhaps it will also decorate the walls in your home in the form of a canvas print?

But the print is just the first step! If you really want to conjure up the atmosphere of the Golden City, you need to show what makes it special. And as already established, a large part of San Francisco’s soul is its music. If you pair the design with musical instruments, such as a piano or a guitar, your interior will immediately spring to life. The instrument will become an important décor element but it can also be practical – it’s never too late to learn, even if you haven’t tried before! You can complete the look of the space with nature-inspired details. In this case, we recommend wooden accessories, since they will also provide a subtle reference to the American hippy movement. Remember, a picture is worth a thousand words. This decorative combination of tradition and modernity marks the home of a traveller but also a cultured person with good taste. San Francisco is truly the crossroads between classic style and modern solutions.
