Montecito

ARTFUL LIVING

Modern Classical Elegance defines the personal residence of renowned Los Angeles architect Rex Lotery. Warm and comfortable by day, glowing like a jewel box by night, this sophisticated art-filled home was designed and completed by Lotery in 1996.

Framed in steel, and designed from the inside out, its expanses of glass and cool white stucco sit comfortably on a Montecito hillside acre with outstanding mountain views.

A long central gallery with skylights that flood the interior with natural light divides the living areas from the working areas. Built with high quality construction, the house has refined details and exciting materials throughout. An ergonomically designed kitchen created by Bulthaup with counter tops of beveled edge bluestone from Pennsylvania opens to a spacious living/dining room with soaring ceilings and walls of glass overlooking the hillside and mountain tops. The residence has 3 generous sized bedrooms with en-suite baths, plus a private office and a large studio with separate entrance. All floors are either white maple or china green slate in this environmentally sensitive contemporary residence.

Winner of the Santa Barbara AIA award and featured in Santa Barbara Magazine in fall of 1999.
