RIVIERA RESIDENCE

RIVIERA RESIDENCE

A quintessential Hillside Spanish Villa blends a few modern concepts within a vernacular home to create a romantic procession to the entry and a front yard living experience that is unparalleled in Santa Barbara.

The new stepped and terraced pathway to the house walks you past a water element and pause points to stop and see views of the Channel Islands.

The architects created a stepped and terraced pathway to the house. Ascending over 16 feet, a winding path takes you from the garage area below up to the entry, passing by a wall of terracotta tile washed by the spilling pool to create a sense of a hillside town in the Mediterranean.

A simple clean approach to the interior detailing helps accentuate the custom lighting and wood elements.
