Contigo, San Francisco
The eco-friendly ethos of Contigo restaurant extends well beyond chef/co-owner Brett Emerson’s locally sourced Spanish and Catalonian menu. The decor by Envelope Architecture + Design features salvaged ceramic tiles, low-VOC paint, and tabletops made of 100-year-old wood beams from a Levi Strauss factory. A backyard terrace showcases a small vegetable garden.
