As admirers of San Francisco’s kaleidoscopic Victorians know, a narrow lot is the perfect place to make a big statement with color choices. Page boosted this sweet little property’s curb appeal with a one-two punch of steel blue for the brick exterior and ripe persimmon for the front door.

The airy sea foam green Page chose for this bedroom’s walls deepens just a bit in the aqua bedspread, then deepens again on the nightstand and pillows. Explicitly beachy details are absent here, but the ripple effect of these tones gives the space the feel of an upscale coastal resort.

This choose-your-own-adventure child’s bedroom builds on its neutral base with cool accents and art that burst into Technicolor. While some of the accessories might suggest a little girl would be most at home here, a few quick swaps could take the room’s tones in a completely different direction.

A shower curtain spends most of its time closed—so why not treat it as a feature wall? This one offsets mineral whites and grays with an ombré swath of Page’s favorite sea-glass green.
