Kenny Slaught Believes In Rich History Of Santa Barbara Area

The Spanish Colonial Revival style was started by architect George Washington Smith almost a century ago. Smith dropped off of Harvard to become a bond trader, and later on relocated to Santa Barbara to pursue his hobbies. But, he was amazed at how much the locals liked the house he built and continued to design for Santa Barbara. He used Spanish materials and mixed the old with the new in his designs. Smith’s works are admired for their beauty and simplicity, and he became a Santa Barbara founding father. Many new artists took him as inspiration, and Kenny Slaught recognizes the keen eye to detail required to create such amazing designs.
