ABOVE: A Jeff Doubét original concept design rendering. The eclectic design elements within my sketch were inspired by the homeowner photos of items they had collected on world travels. They desired to incorporate many of them into their new home design.

I enjoy working with local Santa Barbara and Montecito clients who have purchased classic homes by Early California masters.

I have designed home improvements and additions for homes originally designed by George Washington Smith, Lutah Maria Riggs, D'Alfonso and other talented home designers from the 1920s and 1930s.

Jeff Doubét hand drawn sketches, renderings, designs for Spanish style homes and gardens

Jeff Doubét drawings can be a fun and quick way to see the possibilities of how your home and landscape can be improved.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BEFORE Photo: The owner of this Montecito parcel requested a new home design that would enhance the rural nature of her surroundings.

With lots of Santa Barbara sandstone boulders on the property, a stone and plaster facade was envisioned.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Jeff Doubét hand drawn rendering illustrates a two story stone and plaster home design with a red tile roof.

Technical drawings were completed by an architect, and the building permit was obtained.

In 2022 the property owner decided to sell the project as a package. It sold right away. I look forward to seeing how the new owner proceeds with the property.

Jeff Doubét creative ideas for designing Spanish-style homes and landscapes

Santa Barbara Spanish home designer Jeff Doubet has been designing ideas for homeowners struggling with a design challenge within their homes and landscapes since 2003. Scroll to see more drawings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BEFORE Photo: The homeowner on Arcady Road in Montecito was looking for creative ways to add a new 3 car garage and convert an existing garage to a bedroom suite.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Jeff Doubét concept drawing proposes a new 3 car garage with a small tower breezeway transition as an attractive connection to the main house.

A design for a new, Spanish-style garden shed is shown on the left.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BEFORE photo: A 1970s mix of mid-century and Spanish styling was not a good combination for this Arcady Road property in Montecito.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Jeff Doubét sketch proposes adding sandstone garden walls and staircase. New Spanish Tower entry with chimney detailing, arched windows, etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BEFORE photo: This fixer home had good bones. The 10 acre estate property in the Santa Barbara foothills was what drew the owners to take on the aesthetic changes it would need to become a quality property.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Jeff Doubét Spanish home design sketch proposes: New windows, iron window grilles, stone columns with iron gate. A new fountain motorcourt and ideas for Spanish-style plaster chimney caps.

This Jeff Doubét hand drawn sketch illustrates a Farmhouse design that incorporates a simple aesthetic, reminiscent of San Ysidro Ranch.

Board and Batten siding, heavy beam porch posts with knee bracing, authentic sandstone garden walls and stone steps and flagstone patios were things I proposed.
