This is the newly constructed entry tower to the Casa Corazon project.

 

 

Casa Corazon was a creative collaboration between business entrepreneur / owner builder and myself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Casa Corazon Secret Garden Arch was under construction when this shot was captured. LEARN MORE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here, the project owner and I discuss the ideal placement of a custom family crest to be embedded in the plaster of the secret garden arch...

special elements that will be enjoyed by family and friends for generations to come.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A custom Spanish-style mailbox I designed for the Casa Corazon property in Santa Barbara, CA.

 

Here, the owner, the plasterer artisan and myself plan the top of the mailbox and how the plaster will swoop up on four sides to the iron cross we will mount on top.

A specially designed interior round window with iron grille for Casa Corazon was conceived when I sculpted this apple slice.

A spur of the moment art project, just before a meeting with the owner / builder and the independent construction artisans who would frame and plaster this architectural detail.

 

 

 

 

 

This is the bedroom hall where a barrel ceiling was built and the chamfered interior window was built.

Coordination with a custom glass installer and hand wrought iron worker were also part of the art project.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The completed Spanish-style round window was fitted with purple wavy art glass, and then the custom wrought iron grille was installed in front of it.

 

A Moorish lantern was custom wired into a UL-listed safe custom pendant light for this Spanish-style home being built in Santa Barbara, California.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here, the project owner/builder and I work with the very talented Artisan plasterers on a variety of projects.

 

Today, our team decides on perfect placement of the cast stone family crest medallions that will flank the entry to the red brick motorcourt at Casa Corazon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here, I put the final finishing touches on an original clay sculpture for the Casa Corazon Spanish Revival-style family crest, which was eventually cast in stone.

 

There are 20 symbolic elements that were sculpted in to this crest.

Each represent unique aspects of the property, owner/builder and artist/designer that created it.

 

In the background you can see the paper design concept I had sketched (and had approved by the owner) before I started to carve the clay.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here, I touch up a 2" thick, authentic spanish revival plaster grille...

one of several specified and installed throughout this project.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moorish lanterns purchased and then wired with UL listing to become pendant lighting in this custom Spanis-style home in Santa Barbara, CA.

Decorative Spanish tile frame a clerestory window, as well as an iron and glass front entry door below it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have been photographing a wide range of independent artisans and building trades since 2003.

 

All are collaborating with independently licensed Santa Barbara architects, structural engineers and general contractors.

 

These teams with their project homeowners are creating classic Santa Barbara home designs throughout Santa Barbara, Montecito and Hope Ranch, CA.

I still continue to provide on-site coaching, as well as hands on art direction services for interior design and decorative detail elements for spanish style homes in Santa Barbara, Montecito and Hope Ranch. Feel free to Contact me HERE.
