New Modern Farmhouse | Living Room

The main room of the new house was a unique challenge. It was large, but the client wanted it to feel intimate. The client wanted it to be bright, but not sterile. And like most open plans it contained three zones: living, kitchen and dining, but in this house they are all visible from the front door.

Elsie's Guide to Local Fall Destinations

While the Bay Area may not have the stunning foliage of New England or the chilly mountain air of Colorado in the fall, we have our own gems that make this a beautiful place to live at this time of year. We love pumpkin hunting, apple picking, and cozying up with autumnal treats to get us in the spooky spirit.

Friendsgiving Makes a Comeback

We were all keeping our circles small last year, and for the most part Friendsgiving went by the wayside. This just may be the year Friendsgiving makes a comeback. But let's not over do it. The important thing is to enjoy the company of our friends, not to sweat in the kitchen.

Cookies and Bookies

Fall and winter certainly feel like the seasons of tradition. We're a nostalgic group and love the idea of creating new traditions as well as keeping old ones alive. At Elsie Green, we've started a new tradition for the team that marries two of our great loves - baked goods and books.

Photo Essay | Yosemite on Film

| photography by andie furber |

A couple weeks ago, my parents and I finally made our very first trip to Yosemite together. After 20 years of living in the Bay Area, not a single member of our family of five had made the trip to see the most magnificent valley on Earth. We figured it was about time to do so, and we were not disappointed.

Photo Essay | AutoCamp Yosemite

At Elsie Green, we are big fans of boutique hotels. My mother has a rule that we never stay at big chain hotels, and because of it, we've found so many gems over the years. One of our favorite outdoorsy getaways is the super-chic and super-easy glamping site, AutoCamp.
