Anacapa Architecture

We are deeply honored to receive the Citation #Award , 1 of 14, in the Historical Renovation/Restoration category from #AIA California for our project, #DRIFT Santa Barbara. This achievement reflects the dedication and hard work of our incredible #team and #collaborators. Thank you to everyone involved for your commitment to #excellence and #innovation in #architecture. Together, we continue to create spaces that inspire and enhance our #community.⁠

There's something irreplaceable about the tactile #connection to the materials, sketches, and objects that shape our designs. These #essentials keep us grounded in the physical world, reminding us that #great #design begins with a #handson #approach.

We extend our #design #philosophy beyond Santa Barbara and Portland, crafting projects close to national parks like OfLand Hotel in Escalante, Utah. Our work emphasizes a deep connection to undisturbed #nature, blending #architecture with the natural landscape. We are passionate about creating spaces that foster a harmonious relationship between built #environments and the outdoors, which respects and #celebrates nature's beauty. Photo by Mikal Kelaidis

Working with #local #craftspeople like Anacapa Ceramics allows for a genuine #connection to the #community and an appreciation for unique, handcrafted elements. Their ceramics not only enhance the visual appeal of the spaces but also add a tactile, human touch that resonates with guests. This #collaboration demonstrates how thoughtful design and artisanal #craftsmanship helped merge the building's past and present, fostering a vibrant community connection.⁠ #architecture #team Photo by Erin Feinblatt

Embracing Materials and Nature in Design During one of our trips from Santa Barbara to Portland, Oregon, we witnessed the breathtaking transformation of Oregon’s forests from verdant green to vibrant oranges, reds, and yellows as the trees shed their leaves for winter. These forests of Douglas Fir, Bigleaf Maple, and Oregon White Oak are a constant presence in our lives at the Anacapa Portland Office, not only as a playground for outdoor activities but also as the raw materials for the timber industry that produces much of the country's softwood lumber and specialty wood products we specify for our projects.
