Santa Barbara Real Estate

ArchitecTour’s Design Showcase October 7, 2023

This year’s tour features projects in various communities near downtown Santa Barbara. The projects include newly completed residences on the Mesa, as well as mid-century and cottage-style accessory dwelling units. In addition, tour-goers will also have the chance to visit multi-unit senior and veteran housing projects, Drift Hotel, and SB Biergarten. The spaces demonstrate the beauty of Santa Barbara’s signature indoor-outdoor lifestyle and the diversity of our local communities.

ArchitecTours is an annual celebration of local architecture. Projects on the tour showcase the depth of knowledge and expertise AIA architects have in urban design, sustainability, accessibility, structural improvements, building materials, and historic renovation. The self-guided in-person tour offers a rare opportunity for a behind-the-scenes look at exceptional properties, making architecture more accessible to the public. Tour participants will observe first-hand how architects transform ordinary spaces into impactful environments.
