AD PRO | Napa Home Designed by Vine Projects
For designer Rachel Vineberg Jones and her husband, Eric Jones, their latest chapter was one they hadn’t seen coming. It began with a prolonged hospital stay for their newborn son and continued with the purchase of a 3,000-square-foot home in Napa. “I remember looking around and saying to Eric, ‘There’s something about this place—I think it’s going to become important to us,’” says the founder of San Francisco–based design studio Vine Projects. At the time, the property offered more promise than polish—a largely bare site bounded by agricultural land and a 158-acre public park, with only a sparse mix of non-native grasses and plants to soften the landscape. For the pair, though, that was precisely the appeal. “We’re both builders by nature, and we found a vision that fit the moment,” reflects Vineberg Jones.
