According to the Santa Barbara County Department of Planning and Development, it will be “a new 10,720-square-foot single family residence with 5,387-square-foot basement and 1,945-square-foot attached garage, a 707-square-foot workshop, and a 710-square-foot pottery room.”

••• Local brands SeaVees and Iron & Resin are having a sample sale this weekend.
••• Love seeing architecture making way for trees, as at 1589 Las Canoas ($3 million) in the Cielito area.
