A couple's (and toddler) quest to create a steampunk house. To us steampunk is not just gears and brass. It is form, function and beauty where technology works for us. You are welcome to join our journey to create steampunk home decor, home improvement and our inner Jules Verne.

The Starting Point
Our ideal house to steampunk out would have been a true craftsman but in the San Franciso bay area those are hard to find in a location a) we could afford, b) wasn't a terrible commute or c) wasn't run down beyond our price range ability to fix up. Although we searched for months with the challenges of modern home loans we did not find this dreamed of starting point. What we did find was a 1951 house with some updates from loving owners and nice expansion in a great location with wonderful views from every window. We fell in love with this house the moment we toured it, it just felt like home. So we jumped on this opportunity to buy it. Our decorating desires now is to bring this house into steampunk style.
