Home and Design with Bob Buckter aka Dr. Color

In 1960’s San Francisco, the “Color Movement” swept across the city’s architectural landscape. Victorians and Edwardians were painted in bright fanciful colors as an homage to the psychedelic colorscape of the LSD experience. Inspired by this, architectural color designer Bob Buckter, aka Dr. Color, carried this movement into the 70’s and on. As his style transformed over the decades, Bob’s unique and tasteful color palette touched everything from residential homes and commercial buildings, to churches and hotels. His specialty is in historic homes.

Bob is a second-generation San Franciscian. His legacy can be found not only through his family history, but also on the exteriors of some of SF’s most beautiful and iconic buildings. Please enjoy our interview with Bob Buckter, aka Dr. Color!
