CHAD HACKETT PHOTOS

TAKE A LOOK INSIDE

1518 1/2 San Miguel Avenue, Santa Barbara Mesa 6 Bedroom/3 Bath

Q) What makes this home special? A) This home is only 2 blocks from Shoreline Drive on the ultra-popular Mesa. Itâ€™s set back off the street on a quiet and large flag lot offering amazing ocean and island views, and tons of gorgeous palm tree views as well! Offering over 2,500 sq ft and 6 bedrooms, this spacious house provides several floor-plan options. Q) What can you tell us about the location? A) The home is in a neighborhood thatâ€™s considered a prime area of the Mesa and of course the Washington School District is very highly rated. Q) What have the current owners enjoyed most about living here? A) The home and lot is quiet and really lends itself to an indoor/outdoor Mesa lifestyle, with views of course! The sunrise views from your master bedroom have been amazing, and being able to walk just 2 blocks to beach access is a dream. Having the extra and somewhat separated rear 3 bedrooms has been a bonus for family and friends to use when visiting. The owners say that the open wood-beam ceilings throughout the home have been one of their favorite features. Q) Any other special details our readers should know about? A) The home is all electric and has owned solar with Tesla batteries, meaning that there is no electric bill to speak of, even with the air conditioning running! Being at the top of a flag lot, having an over-sized 2 car garage plus 2 dedicated parking spaces and more is an awesome perk. 1518 1/2 San Miguel Ave is for sale on the Santa Barbara Mesa.

seed of an idea took root in 2005 as architects Clay Aurell and Josh Blumer had conversations about how architecture and community could make a difference in the world. A partnership was born. Today, Santa Barbara–based AB Design Studio is a multidisciplinary firm with broad expertise in architecture, interior design, and urban planning. Amid the coronavirus lockdown, we caught up with Aurell to cover his early inspirations, a 1963 couch on wheels, and how he keeps calm during a global pandemic.

HEART OF THE HOME

father was a contractor. When I was 12, I studied a set of plans before going [with him] to the job site. The home was in the rough-framing stage, but I knew where every room, bathby Keith Hamm room, and closet was located. My dad was a bit dumbfounded. He looked at me funny, shrugged his shoulders, and went to tell some carpenters what to do next.

COURTESY

Q&A with Architect Clay Aurell A

After [college], I spent three months touring Europe. I was especially interested in the urban fabric and how most cities were planned by architects. We are faced with the downtown Santa Barbara dilemma, and I believe that the architects in the community have a strong role to play in what’s next. What’s your favorite public building in town? Meridien Studios is high on my list:

just a great collection of small-scale urban paseos that weave between these quaint studios.

many years, I have played with 35mm film, digital art, digital composition, and blackand-white photography. I feel like the viewfinder is a magical way to see something. What’s your state of mind? With the pan-

demic happening, it’s a bit like a blender. Moments of joy, sadness, frustration, fear, and excitement. It really is a time that we all need to be calm and carry on. I have stopped watching the news and instead catch a few articles here and there. I need to be focused for my family and for my company and team members.

FINER DINING: Oliver’s restaurant in Montecito was designed by AB Design Studio and built by Giffin & Crane. What do you most like about your job?

I get exposed to so many different people and business ventures. That variety is very inspiring, and the human connection is so incredibly valuable for all human beings. That’s what makes this time so challenging right now. What do you most dislike about your job?

The pace. It seems like these days, everything has to be done yesterday.

What is your most treasured possession?

My 1963 Lincoln Continental. It is long, gold, and convertible. Great for wine tasting or just a cruise down the beach. It literally floats down the road.

that away!” Presently, I’m working from home nearly all day. I don’t need perfection, but when the kids leave dishes on the counter and shoes on the floor, I feel it is my job to teach them to clean up after themselves.

What is your motto? “Plan your work and work your plan.” This is very helpful in business, but now has extended into home projects and the kids’ homework. Even if it is just for the day, plan out what you can do, and don’t worry about what you cannot do. Stay in the positive. Stay on course. Keep moving. It certainly helps take your mind off of the current state of the world and helps give purpose to whatever it is that you’re up to.

Giffin & Crane General Contractors, Inc. has been building custom homes in Santa Barbara since 1986.

free devices wherever possible. Automatic doors on sensors may become more prevalent. Temporary plexiglass dividers between workspaces might be installed until more permanent solutions can be ordered and installed. Plexiglass or glass dividers may even be installed in meeting rooms as well. Furniture will need to be rearranged, and new furniture may be required. Many companies will choose to continue to use Zoom and other web conferencing services for group meetings instead of meeting in person. More people will continue to work from home, and many landlords will find themselves with vacant space. How all of this will affect company cultures, communication, teamwork, and

a sense of belonging will be interesting to see. Companies will have to come up with other methods for fostering these important aspects of their businesses. Web-based collaboration software, and perhaps even the use of computer avatars, will increase. Jobs and systems will be redesigned along with physical spaces. Some companies may stagger the days that staff members come into the office so that it’s possible to keep people at least six feet apart. Janitorial procedures will change. The use of ultraviolet light to disinfect may increase. Designers have a new challenge ahead of them: to completely rethink office design to continue to meet the goals of our clients while protecting their staff from infection.

RETHINKING HOME

As our homes function as offices, classrooms, conference rooms, and gyms, we realize how important the organization of our space is in promoting productivity. Open-concept great rooms continue to be desirable with the addition of smaller spaces within them for privacy and community at the same time, along with more defined and multiple workspaces or offices. We will likely see bigger pantries, and the return of the mudroom as a disinfecting room, to shed shoes and street clothes. A sink in the mudroom for hand

washing before entering the main house could double as a spa station for furry family members. Desirable design elements which optimize natural daylight are more important to our wellbeing than ever, through windows, skylights, or sunrooms. Window boxes and places for urban farming as well as access to livable outdoor spaces are especially important. Materials that are non-porous, easy to clean, and reduce the likelihood of infection are the top choice. As supply chains are interrupted and we reconsider the safety and cost effectiveness of sourcing materials from non-domestic locations, we will have to be more thoughtful with our choices. Local and regional products are more sustainable and support our local economy. We want homes that are easier and less expensive to run long term. For decades green homes with optimal energy efficiency have been important to consumers, and now more than ever are the gold (green) standard, as we are spending so much time in our homes and

heltering in place has shed new light on how we experience our homes. Functionality and comfort come to the forefront, as well as the ease to keep clean, find privacy, and to utilize spaces which might have been previously overlooked. Little annoyances which have been put off for years will become things that must be fixed now. Changes in the home which make us feel more at peace are paramount, as more than ever our homes are our sanctuary in uncertain times.

MAY 14, 2020

In the past few decades, the vast majority of companies have adopted an open office floor plan with open workspaces or desking. This was done to foster collaboration. As a design firm, Statement Design’s goal on many projects has often been getting coworkers to come together in open lounges, informal meeting spaces, and break rooms to share information and be creative. But an open, collaboration-focused floor plan is the absolute worst type of layout for physical distancing. So now what? Corporate attorneys are advising their clients to eliminate break rooms where people share coffee makers, refrigerators, and sinks, as well as perhaps even meeting rooms. Solutions that may be less obvious to non-designers are modifications to the HVAC system so there’s negative pressurization, the addition of an air filtration system, the replacement of high-use surfaces with anti-microbial and smooth and cleanable materials, and the addition of high-quality walk-off mats at entry doors. Touch points can be replaced with touch-

s the country starts to think about going back to work in the face of this COVID-19 pandemic, corporate clients are being advised by their attorneys to modify their office spaces before employees return to work in order to help prevent the spread of the virus. Employers have the responsibility of providing a safe working environment. If they have not taken precautions to keep their people safe, employers could be liable if employees get sick or, worse yet, die. Since it will be impossible to provide a 100 percent safe environment, many employers, if they take the advice of their attorneys, will ask their workers to sign liability waivers in order to return to the office. They are also considering requiring employees to regularly fill out questionnaires regarding their current health status and potential exposure to the coronavirus. Going to work sick will no longer be allowed. Furthermore, pandemics in general are now on everyone’s radar, and it’s clear that our way of life must adapt to mitigate potential future outbreaks.
