Library

Ryan Residence is a minimalist interior project created by San Francisco-based architects Garcia Tamjidi Architecture Design. The designers made a breathtakingly minimalist project, visually spare and materially luxurious. A world of respite, rest, and repair. It was built for an entrepreneur. He wanted a library, and they gave him that: an unusual typology in our ever-connected world, but one that shows how a fundamentally essential program—learning, slowing down, reading—was front and center. The details: a geometrically evocative fireplace provides a visual anchor for the barn-like structure.
