About AIASF Home Tours
Started in San Francisco in 2004, AIASF’s Home Tours program (formerly "San Francisco Living: Home Tours") is the first tour series of its kind in the Bay Area to promote a wide variety of architectural styles, neighborhoods, and residences. Projects are showcased via an open house format and tour participants have the opportunity to see some of the region's latest projects from the inside out, meet design teams, explore housing trends, and discover design solutions that inspire unique ways of living.
 

This is an excellent opportunity for architects and homeowners to showcase the positive impact of great residential design in San Francisco and demonstrate the ways design contributes to an improved quality of our daily lives.
 

Format: Self-guided one-day home tour showcasing multiple homes on Saturday, September 21 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM (Pacific Time). 

This year, AIASF encourages "all-electric project" submissions in an effort to show architects and the general public that design excellence and climate solutions go hand-in-hand. Features such as fully electric induction kitchens and electric heat pump mechanical systems are exciting technologies being adopted (and mandated) by local jurisdictions as the standard in low-carbon, high-efficiency homes. Additionally, electrification is supported and encouraged by AIA programs such as the Architecture 2030 Commitment, and the Framework for Design Excellence.

     The tour aims to:

  • Celebrate great design in the region, revealing ways it continues to contribute to our unique quality of life. 
  • Promote the awareness, understanding, appreciation, and experience of excellent design. 
  • Engage the community in conversation about residential design and connection with the surrounding environment.
  • Provide insights into the design process with pre-tour lectures and opportunities to interact with architects and designers on site during the tour.
  • Demonstrate the positive impact of great design as it contributes to our economy, environment and community identity.
  • Highlight the innovative talent of our local design community and inspire a new generation of architects to explore the field.
