More Moderne On The Hill (618-622 Carolina)
618-622 Carolina is another modern addition to Potrero Hill in San Francisco, and le blog exuberance captures a couple of photos and waxes poetic:
Generous balconies allow for the outdoor living so often possible in this sunny side of town. The monumental cactii adds a Palm Springs Moderne flair to the streetscape, and the garage door follows our currently developing tradition of using wood in modern façades. There's also a nice use of industrial materials in the black metal railings and especially in that trellis at top, which will probably be covered in hanging purple wisteria in a few years. All in all, a fine addition to our neighborhood.
And yes, we’re digging that garage door and the balconies, but we’re not so sure how a wisteria laden trellis would work with all those succulents.

Looks awesome! An MLS/listing link and interior photos would be cool to see too. That ADT security sign screams 'suburban paranoia' and detracts from the clean lines. I can't stand those things - can we please have it removed??
[Editor's Note: Sorry, as far as we know this one is not for sale.]

Cactii add, not adds. Yes, love the garage door. About the ADT sign: Is this not an effective deterrent and acceptable tradeoff? Who prefers pretty over safe? It's not paranoia. Break-ins do happen.
