2009 SAN FRANCISCO LIVING: HOME TOURS PARTICIPATING ARCHITECTS

AIA San Francisco’s popular San Francisco Living: Home Tours weekend is the first tour series of its kind in the Bay Area to promote a wide variety of architectural styles, neighborhoods, and residences—all from the architect's point of view.

The annual program provides design enthusiasts and the general public with an inside look into the world of distinctive residences in San Francisco. Projects are showcased with the designer(s) via an open house format, and tour participants have the opportunity to see some of the city's latest residential projects from the inside out, meet design teams, explore housing trends, and discover design solutions that inspire unique San Francisco living.

$60 one day, $120 two days before September 1st
$70 one day, $140 two days after September 1st or day-of tickets

AIA SF members must have a valid AIA member ID# to receive the member rate. Available tickets will be limited in order to preserve the intimacy of the event and may sell out. Tours are self-guided. Your ticket will be mailed the first week of Septemeber and provide you with directions as well as maps to each of the homes. To help protect the privacy of participating homeowners, addresses will not be released prior.
