HEART OF THE HOME

POOLSIDE

by Keith Hamm

Mediterranean Estate: Covering 13,000 square feet on two and a half acres, this hilltop

mansion by architect Don Nulty blends the state-of-the-art amenities of modern homebuilding with a timeless design rooted in early 20th-century estate architecture. Mediterranean lines with lots of arched window glass welcome long views from the front-yard pool to the Santa Barbara Channel.

Tuscan Farmhouse: Covering 5,500 square feet with four bedrooms and four baths — and

that pool — this French-Italian farmhouse features imported limestone fireplace surrounds, hand-hewn oak beams from the 19th century, and sprinklers and tempered window glass to meet strict building codes for mountainous areas prone to wildfire. Architecture by Chris Dentzel.

S

ummer is in full swing, and cool pools are calling. Over the years, Giffin & Crane has built and remodeled dozens of family homes that take advantage of the Southern California views and semiarid temps that tend to pull people outside. Plus, life just gets better when there’s a swimming pool nearby. Here’s a handful of some of our favorites.

INDEPENDENT REAL ESTATE

California/Caribbean Ranch: Returning from a trip to the tropics, the owners of this 1960s ranch home brought Caribbean flavor to an extensive, room-by-room remodel, headed up by architect Loren Solin. Fewer walls, more glass, and dormer windows enhance glorious vistas from the trussed, open-beam living spaces. Outside, there are poolside accents, a metal roof, and colors adding more vibrancy to the desired flair.

French Country Style: For this extensive remodel, Mosaic Architects & Interiors trans-

formed a plain house into a home with conspicuous architectural highlights and indooroutdoor connections. Upstairs, the mansard roof was opened up to create an oversized dormer, with 10-foot ceilings and a new floor plan to take in the view of the pool and mountains.

Modern Luxury: This six-bedroom, seven-bath spread features double-framed exterior

walls with rigid-panel reflective insulation to keep the home cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Its solar system heats the pool, fuels super-efficient LED lighting, and generates surplus energy credits. Architecture by Tom Meaney.

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

Most inhabitants will never leave the great room living that graciously flows out to the loggia/pool and spa area but when they do, they will retire to one of the 6 bedrooms.

There are 4 full bathrooms, 2 half bathrooms as well as 2 outdoor showers. There is a true wine cellar temperature moderated by nature. This perfectly sited home rests gracefully in a gated neighborhood, on a very private .61 acre lot, and is supported by a host of local hiking opportunities as well as top-rated schools. The 3-car garage features a Tesla charger waiting to top off your EV. Enjoy the epitome of coastal California living!

AUGUST 5, 2021

Looking for a private retreat that will make you think you are living in your own private spa? All of your friends and family will have room to luxuriate in this magnificent Mediterranean retreat. The long and open vistas reveal sprawling ocean and valley views out to The Channel Islands. Architect Murray Duncan has outdone himself with this ±5,600 square foot estate.

GOING GREEN

The Advantages of Local Food Production

M

y last article focused on creating food security in Brazil with the accompanying benefit of strengthening community. There is a growing movement worldwide, including in our tri-county area, to encourage local farming. This is a rich agricultural region, but most of what is produced is exported, while more than 90 percent of what we consume is imported.

A similar situation existed in Rosario, Argentina, when the economy collapsed in 2001. A quarter of the workforce was unemployed, half the population dropped below the poverty line, and food shortages became common. To address this crisis, the municipal government started its Urban Agriculture Program to create employment and counter hunger. The city partnered with 700 families and made available unused land for farming. Two decades later, the program is

Junior Spirit of Fiesta Savannah Hoover and Zermeño Dance Academy founder/owner Daniela Zermeño

Sarah Naretto (2016 Junior Spirit)

Zermeño Dance Academy Holds Fiesta in the Grove Fundraiser

O

n July 18, Zermeño Dance Academy held its annual Fiesta in the Grove event to raise funds for the musicians who accompany the dancers in the multitude of performances during Fiesta.

At the event in scenic Godric Grove, SOCIETY MATTERS Elings Park, Zermeño Dance Academy founder and owner Daniela Zermeño welcomed the 200 guests and exclaimed that “there is something in the air tonight.” This drew abundant smiles and laughter, as the crowd knew they were in for a splendid performance, which they indeed experienced.

The evening began with a reception and buffet dinner on the spacious hilltop.

Many attendees were family and friends

by Gail Arnold of the dancers, but there was also strong support from Old Spanish Days folks and other community members who have discovered this magical night of flamenco performed in the natural beauty of Elings Park.

In the amphitheater, there was dazzling flamenco dancing

by Zermeño Dance Academy students, including this year’s Junior Spirit of Fiesta, 9-year-old Savannah Hoover. Renowned artists Yiyi Orozco, Jose Tanaka, and Diego Alvarez Muñoz provided the music.

From Monday through Saturday, all 75 of Zermeño’s students will be dancing before audiences across town, with the older students doing as many as five performances per day as the week goes on. The dancers perform at retirement homes, schools, and camps. They dance at Paseo Nuevo, La Cumbre Plaza, and at restaurants, including Loquita, La Paloma, and The Lark. They also perform at Old Spanish Days events, including La Fiesta Pequeña at the Old Mission Santa Barbara and Noches de Ronda at the S.B. Courthouse Sunken Gardens.

According to Zermeño, having professional musicians is really important for the performances. She hired the same musicians who performed for Fiesta in the Grove — two from L.A., one from Washington, D.C. The $15,000 expense is huge for a company that generously performs for free. The cost is shared by 30 families whose kids perform with the musicians — families who incur significant other costs for Fiesta too, including a few hundred dollars for each of the elaborate

dresses the dancers wear. The academy holds other fundraisers to further defray costs.

Zermeño began dancing at the age of 4 in Santa Barbara, and in her youth, she studied under numerous professional dancers and performed in a wide variety of venues. She related that she always has been passionate about teaching, and when she was only 12, she began teaching other kids in a studio her parents created in their garage. She later formed the dance school Fuego Gitano, which then became Zermeño Dance Academy, which she owns and runs with her husband, Danny Sanchez.

Zermeño herself was the Spirit of Fiesta in 2009. With the exception of one year between 2014 and 2021, the Spirit and/ or Junior Spirit has been a Zermeño Dance Academy student every year. Sadly, a knee injury prevents Zermeño from participating this year. In her 32 years, she has missed participating in only one other Fiesta — when she was pregnant. Even as an infant, she was in the Children’s Parade. Her 2-year-old daughter, Soleí Lucia Sanchez, a student in Baby Flamenco class, will be dancing this year.

During the lockdown, Zermeño was determined to keep the academy running while ensuring the safety of its dancers and compliance with government mandates. Continuation was important, according to Zermeño, both for the physical benefit and social benefit dancing provides. The academy had only a two-week closure, followed by Zoom instruction through June 2020, then instruction at their newly constructed outdoor studio, and then back to the studio with masking.

For the dancers, according to Zermeño, it’s all about Fiesta.

About half the students begin in September, and most of the rest in January. The academy has five other instructors, all trained by Zermeño. This year’s class of 75 is about half the normal size, which resulted from the uncertainty brought on

by COVID at sign-up time.

When talking about Fiesta, Zermeño lights up. Fiesta has an incredibly special place in her heart, she relates, because of the celebratory gatherings with friends and the community, along with all the tradition embodied in Fiesta. With her passion for dancing, of course she also loves being onstage and seeing people’s reactions to the performances. The same goes for the kids, she shared, for them “getting onstage in front of people is everything.”

INDEPENDENT REAL ESTATE

ave you wondered about buying real estate as an investment? Have you looked at the steadily increasing prices of properties recently and thought it was beyond you? There could be a simple solution right in front of you or more appropriately right under your feet. If you own a home there is a chance you could add an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to your property and rent it out for investment income. An ADU is another residence on the same property as the primary house. It can be an existing part of the house, connected to it or a separate structure. ADUs were often referred to as “granny units” and “mother in law” units in the past.
