Brian is the very best host and we had a great stay in the very "splendid artist residency". Brian has a very inclusive and relaxed personality and with our shared artistic passions it was easy to make connections that helped us feel welcome in San Francisco. We are both artists and our stay in SF was enhanced by staying with Brian. The stunning hand/artist made loft residence is truly a labour of love and a unique and exciting place to stay. Fabulous decor and furnishings, very comfortable bed, and spacious kitchen and living spaces, and beautiful garden outlook. Perfect.
We were fortunate to have Brian take us on a tour of his wonderful public art installations in San Francisco. This guy is the real deal and we can recommend him to other artists who want to use the stay as an opportunity to enhance their art practice with a genuine and inclusive artistic experience. Time and again Brian offered us studio space but our stay was too brief. However we can envisage other artists taking him up on his offer, just ask!!
This all sounds like Brian was around all the time. Not so. He has another studio in the amazing art compound and in no way intruded on our enjoyment of the space. However all contact with Brian was welcomed and helpful and "splendid" as newcomers to SF.
Five stars!!
