Behind every stunning home is a series of smart, strategic approvals—and today, we’re proud to be presenting at the Santa Barbara South County Board of Architectural Review (SBAR).

As a full-service design + build studio, we don’t just design and build beautiful spaces—we navigate the entire permitting and review process on behalf of our clients. From coastal development permits to hillside design standards, we’re fluent in the language of local codes and compliance.

Design is just the beginning. We get it built—with integrity, precision, and full transparency every step of the way.

In fire-prone regions like Santa Barbara, designin

In fire-prone regions like Santa Barbara, designing fire-resistant homes and landscapes is both a practical and aesthetic priority. Here are some strategies to safeguard your property while preserving its charm:

1. Build with Fire-Resistant Materials

Opt for durable materials that resist flames and heat. Fiber cement siding, stucco, and treated wood are excellent choices for exterior walls. Pair these with Class A fire-rated roofs made of metal, clay tiles, or composite shingles. Upgrade to tempered glass windows and steel or fiberglass doors to prevent ember penetration.

2. Install Fire Sprinklers

A home fire sprinkler system provides an active layer of defense. These systems activate automatically, controlling flames before they spread, offering unmatched protection during wildfire season and beyond.

3. Defensible Space and Hardscaping

Create a defensible space around your home by clearing flammable materials within five feet of the structure. Replace mulch with gravel or decorative stone and incorporate firebreaks like patios, stone pathways, and retaining walls to reduce fire spread while enhancing outdoor design.

4. Plant Fire-Resistant Landscaping

Select plants with high moisture content, such as succulents, lavender, and native drought-tolerant options. Avoid flammable species like junipers and eucalyptus. Prune trees and shrubs regularly and maintain horizontal and vertical spacing to keep flames from spreading.

5. Prioritize Maintenance and Irrigation

Keep vegetation hydrated using efficient drip irrigation systems that conserve water while reducing flammability. Regularly clear debris from roofs, gutters, and yards to minimize potential fuel sources.

6. Fire-Ready Architectural Features

Enhance your home with covered eaves, fine-mesh vent screens, and fire-resistant decking materials like composite, concrete, or metal.

By combining smart design, fire sprinklers, and regular maintenance, you can protect your home while celebrating the natural beauty of Santa Barbara.
