The Stephens Residence  is a retreat home with clean lines and a clear ocean view. The site is in an ideal location along the Goleta Hill Foothills. Building Materials have been selected for their natural raw quality. A linear path from the upper hillside passes by the interior courtyard and terminates in the reflection pool, forming the spine of the building. Exposed concrete, stainless steel, opaque and clear green glass, hardwood siding and natural Santa Barbara sandstone create an understated blend of materials and connection with the landscape..
