Letter from theEditor

Welcome to our beautiful Home Edition! Whether you’re in the market for furniture, light fixtures, or an estate, our October issue focuses on bringing luxury to every aspect of your home!

From the moment you drive through the gates in a vintage red Mercedes, to waking up to a kitchen filled with decadent desserts, you will fall in love with one of Montecito’s finest historic estates. Your dreams become reality in this month’s House of Dreams.

Also currently on the market, perched in the foothills of Montecito, Villa di Serenita boasts the most picturesque view I’ve ever seen. Regardless of where you look, your eyes are bound to catch a beautiful glimpse of the best scenery Santa Barbara has to offer. From the Santa Ynez Mountains to the Pacific Ocean—not to mention immaculate gardens surrounding the Italian estate—these grounds have it all!

At House of Honey, Tamara Kaye-Honey transforms the mundane to über chic with peculiar home goods that beg to be taken home. Read more about how our featured designer has

brought her phenomenal taste to the San Ysidro Village on page 28. Also featured in our home edition is the powerhouse designer couple, Steve and Caroline Thompson of Cabana Home. Patio furniture, gorgeous fabrics, and fine bedding will be quite the treat for the homeowner looking to upgrade their home into a luxurious getaway!

Hudson Grace brings simplistic and stately elegancy to tangible form. From table settings to specialty candles, this bright treasure trove of delicious home décor will fulfill all your home design needs and wants.

Of course we can’t forget the most important room in the house: the walk-in closet. Fill yours with fall must-haves like suede heels and cashmere sweaters. And if you’re anything like me and dedicate an hour a day to online shopping, enjoy Making a Scene where we’ve curated the best decor that you won’t have to leave your soon-to-be perfect house to buy!

Located on East Valley Road, an enchanting gate

embellished with two sentinel lions stands nestled amid the scenic Santa Ynez Mountains

and Montecito’s Upper Village. Not yet inviting us

in, but not yet ceasing to captivate our curiosity either,

the iron gates, emblazoned with gold writing, read “La

Casa del Sueño.” Literally translating to “House of

Dreams,” the 8,500-square-foot Mediterranean estate

designed by the famed architect Reginald Johnson in 1917, did not fully come

to life until its second owner, Amy du Pont acquired the

property in 1930.

Eager to captivate the decadent Montecito charm

the estate possesses, the SBLS team crafted an afternoon

of timeless glamour, opulent fashion and scrumptious

desserts that had us salivating!

In 1974, Burl Ives—America’s greatest balladeer—and his wife Dorothy purchased the estate once belonging to du Pont. Dorothy Ives, formerly an interior decorator, felt the home needed some minor detail changes, but felt compelled to keep the estate in its original condition. “I felt the love and warmth of the house when I first stepped in the door.” Dorothy, described as a vivacious blond, greeted houseguests with no less than six dogs at heal. “Most of the changes were to small areas—like the kitchen. I did add a deck upstairs, a downstairs terrace and some small windows were transformed into French doors.”

Today the mostly unchanged grounds boast six-bedrooms and seven-baths, ocean and mountain views, horse stables and corral, guest house/entertainment pavilion and a putting green.

HOUSE

H EONTamara Kaye-Honey’s interior design

studio, House of Honey, may be new to the neighborhood, but that hasn’t stopped

her from demanding a presence. Honey’s newest studio—90 miles north of the Pasadena flagship—opened its doors just two months ago and already we are obsessing over the carefully curated home goods permeating all corners of the quaint cottage in the new San Ysidro Village. Honey transforms the mundane to the über chic with a unique collection of items and we just can’t get enough! What can one expect to find? Think ultra glam bar carts, fabulous lamps, and other home goods and accessories from designer collections like Tom Dixon, Missoni Home, Alexandra von Furstenberg, Jamie Hayon, Kelly Wearstler, Joe Cariati, Amanda Wright, and Carl Aubock, Along with chic hats designed by Gladys Tamez Millinery.

In need of home face-lift? Stop by House of Honey to see what the hype is all about. Can’t find the time to make it over to the studio? Fear not! Honey makes her impeccable taste accessible through the online luxury boutique, 1stdibs.com. In

the meantime, take a second to get to know the creative force behind the upscale retail showroom as we talk decorating tips, her new lighting line and what inspired Honey to bring her eclectic taste to Montecito.

What makes Montecito—San Ysidro shopping center—the perfect place for your new studio?

The House of Honey shop is a charming cottage, which echoes the homes you find all around Montecito. I love the juxtaposition of the traditional exterior mixed with the moody and dramatic interior I created- it’s an unexpected surprise and quite the jewel box! With its vaulted ceiling, I have the perfect space to showcase an amazing chandelier by one of our exclusive lighting designers, Lindsey Adelman. A feature wall showcases bold wallpaper from Zak+Fox, which pairs beautifully with a Heath ceramic tile fireplace installation (another one of our exclusive lines).

What about Montecito do you find appealing (to have a business)? Why not LA or NYC?

After discovering a small midcentury Lutah Riggs cottage (in need of a major renovation), I fell in love with Montecito. Growing up in Canada my husband and I

always had cottages, so we really wanted to have that lifestyle for our kids (ages 10 and 12). I love the relaxed vibe and the ocean is incredible!

What is something that will instantly enhance a dull room?

Add metallic and gold to balance the color! Take a chance and choose a paint color for the walls that is unexpected; you can always repaint. Color can be vibrant and make just as much of a statement in small moments

as a bold vintage oil abstract painting. Juxtapose a strong wall color with worn antique furniture in front of it. Oh, and art of course! Start a collection and keep adding. I have started collecting vintage ship paintings for my son,

and the wall is starting to look great! I have done the same with vintage flower paintings for the guest bathroom. I think I have about 15 paintings, creating a beautiful wall collage; the effect is quite dramatic.

Tell us a little about your custom lighting line that you just launched!

Lighting is everything! I think it’s the most important design element in a space and truly sets the tone. It not only grounds an interior but gives it that point of view and originality. Without good lighting, a space is unfinished and uninspiring. (Yes, I mean it!!!) My new line is a mix of old and new, shiny and dull, lux and simple – all in one! The collection is inspired by 1960 and 70s lighting – so playful, yet sophisticated!

What is your favorite piece in your home?

My 1970s Parrot chair by I B Arberg! It’s form is both strong and linear, yet it is truly witty. It’s like a big wink! We have one in our kids playroom and it’s one of my special pieces that I would never sell on 1stdibs!

You sell purses, toothpaste, headphones etc.; I feel like I have anything and everything I could ever need right here in your store. Tell me a little about the concept behind HOH.

I opened House Of Honey as I felt there was a void in the market for a chic shop that carried a curated selection of re-invented home furnishings, contemporary finds, and decorative accessories. The House of Honey concept is based on the idea of a lifestyle that is full of personality, humor and of course, style.

Your taste is impeccable, where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration comes from chaos and change. I feel like if a design, be it a product or space, doesn’t make me slightly uncomfortable in the process, it’s too simple or obvious. I like to keep challenging myself and my team and really my clients as well. I love that every day is a new adventure. Because we are working in product, commercial, and residential design along with retail, we are never bored!

Tell us one thing you love about the Santa Barbara lifestyle.

I love the laidback, yet refined style. I think House of Honey has a distinctive personality that is a wonderful addition to the beautiful shops in the area. My sensibility is eclectic and soulful, which I think reflect the SB lifestyle.

Among the amazing items you’ll find at CH, perhaps the most popular are their

gorgeous, one-of-a-kind fabrics. “We have one of the largest fabric libraries between Los Angeles and San Francisco, and we sell fabrics for upholstery and window coverings,” says Steve. Cabana Home carries upholstery lines including Palecek, Pearson, and Baker, just to name a few.

So what inspires the couple? “First the Client! The room or design must reflect them, so our first job is to elicit from them their ideas for the room, then help them develop a plan to get there efficiently, and eliminating potential mistakes.”

Choose from sexy leopard print pillows or an ornate quartz table lamp, the Thompson duo truly caters to the client’s every need and has fun doing it. Currently trending in the Cabana Home showroom? Greys. “Grey is the new neutral. Shades of grey run from creamy greys to taupe greys. We are the best store if you don’t want your house to look like it came from a catalogue.”

The showroom exudes modern elegance with a twist of sexy chic and we are officially in love!

For Steve and Caroline Thompson, this is more than a labor of love, it’s a way of life: “We sit on every seat; examine every finish right in the showroom or factory. When someone asks if we’ve ever sat on a particular piece, we can look him or her in the eye and say yes! We are hands on, from start to finish.”

Co-owners, Monelle Totah and Gary McNatton have recently expanded their minimalistic, yet sophisticated taste to the beautiful Central Coast. Located in the newly renovated Montecito Country Mart, Hudson Grace lies situated amongst some of the coveted retail and home good boutiques. “We were struck by the beauty of the town of Montecito. After looking in Los Angeles, we fell in love with the size and the scale of the center, the curated shops and location near the most beautiful homes in California,” says Totah.

Because Montecito does have some of the most yearned for real estate, it makes sense that Hudson Grace would bring the casual elegance they are most known for to our beachside village. “Gary is a minimalist and I am a collector,” Totah explains. “We have great respect for each of our aesthetics.” With Totah’s collector’s expertise and McNatton’s “dead on simplicity,” the harmony that exists between Hudson Grace’s owners is what gives the design studio its refined balance and delicacy.

HUDSONGRACE“Clean. Simple. Elevated.” These are the words used by Monelle Totah of Hudson Grace to describe the aesthetic behind the new design studio in Montecito.

In time for the holidays, Hudson Grace sells all your furnishing essentials needed to transform a house into a home. “Key

trends” and tips from Totah herself include mixing old with the new and including oversized serve pieces for gatherings. Fit to complete their social gatherings is their very own Hudson Grace organic dinnerware; cathedral candles and oversized serving pieces. Also included amongst essentials for home décor are vintage silver pieces and Gio Ponte flatware. Inspired by beautiful products, homes and the perfect dinner party, Hudson Grace carries something special for the interior designer in all of us.

With two locations in Northern California (Larkspur and San Francisco,) Totah and McNatton were inspired by the Santa Barbara lifestyle for their third store location. We love “the natural beauty, the love for environment, the perfect temperature” explains Totah. How could we disagree? Santa Barbara does have everything we could ever need, and now with our very own Hudson Grace, what more could we possibly ask for?

What is the perfect housewares gift for the person who has everything?

Our candle fragrance aptly named Montecito, created in March when we moved into our space, Gary experienced the green jasmine buds, yet to bloom, the eucalyptus oil washed into the earth and the scent of cedar – at that moment we knew what Montecito smelled like –(it launches this week)!
