1. S16 Home
Brian and Luke.
We’re the founders of S16 Home. We’ve always seen the beauty in objects and admired the craftsmanship from bygone eras. Neither of us are formally trained in design, our store is simply a reflection of our obsession with collecting. Our style is classic, historic and monumental. With years of experience offering San Francisco and the rest of our online community our unique point of view, our brand continues to reach homes nationally and internationally.
“I was visiting San Francisco on a whim and met Brian. His Midwestern charm caught me off guard. Six months later I moved countries, married him and we started S16.” Luke
“I’ve been collecting since the dawn of time. As a kid, my father used to take me to farm auctions and my mother to yard sales. But it took an Aussie to make me realize that I could make a decent living doing what I love.” Brian
The way we do business.
S16 Home is an online retailer. You can shop our full collection online and either pick up from our San Francisco location or we can help you arrange shipping. If you would like to see items in person, please make an appointment Monday to Friday (11am – 5pm).
Let us take you back in time and across the globe.
Established in 2014 in San Francisco’s Castro District, S16 Home offers some of the best industrial and mid-century furniture, antique objects and vintage lighting on the market – all sorts of things, carefully designed, admired and preserved.
We take great pride in our meticulously curated collection, which reflects our belief that our stories can be told by the objects we surround ourselves with. When people shop at S16 they choose their own objects and make their own journey, but we think what they find is that their own histories quickly intersect with everybody else’s, and when that happens, there are endless connections.
Every vintage object purchased means one less new one produced. Will that save the planet? No. But it’s a start. By buying one of our items you are making a small step to help reduce the environmental impact of homewares manufacturing, so join us by taking your own small step.
How did Stephen Moore Home start? I’ve always been fascinated by how people live in a house and make it their own. Home is a complex word, and the journey to finding refuge is such a personal one.
After years of buying, selling, and fixing-up houses, I took a sabbatical with my family and spent a few years living in the UK, where the small shops of London and Paris reminded me of rummaging through Southern country stores as a kid. When I returned to San Francisco, I knew I wanted to open a mercantile, and creating Stephen Moore Home was a way to join real estate, design, and shopkeeping all under one roof.
Where is Stephen Moore Home located?
I live in Noe Valley, a short walk from the neighborhood’s commercial hub, 24th Street. I love that it still feels like a local shopping destination and always admired a particular corner Victorian. When the original toy shop that was there closed, I jumped at the chance to take over the space and designed it to feel like an old country store. I covered the walls with beadboard, the ceiling with pressed tin, and furnished it with lights and fixtures I brought back from London. There’s something so comforting about the reference to traditional shopkeeping and it’s a great counterpoint to the more contemporary hand-crafted homegoods I carry.
How do you manage real estate, design, and the shop, all at the same time?
The evolution of my work from buying and selling, to renovating and designing, to furnishing… that journey was intuitive, so it helps that they literally fall under one roof. The shop is a great place to talk to people about the things that make their house a home. Those conversations sometimes lead to consulting on a room or designing an entire house. If they’re interested in buying or selling real estate, I’ll set up a meeting with my partner, Sue, and we’ll pursue that together with Compass. These are all parts of the same story—the story of finding and making a home—and I’m really fortunate to have a great team helping me get it all done.
What do you do when you’re not working?
When I’m not at the shop, my husband and I, along with our two kids and a pair of black Labs, head north to Sonoma County, where we keep bees, farm apples, and are constantly fixing up an old house.

Shop In-Store
Anthem has luxurious retail retreats located in five locations throughout the Bay Area. Our original store replaced an old grocery store on Sacramento Street in 2008 in the heart of San Francisco’s Presidio Heights neighborhood. We opened the second Anthem location in 2017 on the peninsula in downtown Menlo Park. Since then we’ve opened additional locations in Healdsburg Square, downtown Burlingame, and most recently in Marin in the Corte Madera Town Center. Each Anthem store is a unique experience created to inspire the designer in all of us.
