RUSTIC GARAGE MEETS GUEST HOUSE GALORE

We wouldn't save the best* for last if this was just a garage, and this barn-like build is definitely more than a place to park the cars and quads. The Farm's carriage house brings the rustic charm to the modern main house and offers two additional guest suites (sleeping at least six little bodies), a bathroom and a mudroom to keep the wonder of the wilderness out where it belongs.

*Picking favorites at The Farm is pretty much impossible, you tell us — which is your favorite part?

THE CARRIAGE HOUSE

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // MANOLO LANGIS PHOTOGRAPHY

CARRIAGE HOUSE: HISTORICALLY SPEAKING, A STRUCTURE DETACHED FROM THE MANOR OR ESTATE ON THE PROPERTY THAT HOUSED HORSE-DRAWN CARRIAGES AND SOMETIMES INCLUDED STALLS FOR ANIMALS AND LIVING QUARTERS.

THE FARM'S BARN-INSPIRED CARRIAGE HOUSE TAKES US BACK IN TIME AND SETS THE TONE FOR A GOOD OLD FASHIONED STAY ON THE PROPERTY... WITH THE MODERN LUXURIES OF TODAY, OF COURSE.

THE MUDROOM

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

WASH THE WORRIES AWAY

Resilient, natural materials cover this wash room in style so clean up can look good and weather the storm. A soapstone sink makes a statement in the steel vanity and the floor-to-ceiling plaid mosaic hides any hints of splashing. This mudroom houses a full shower to rinse away the big messes that carefree country living can entail without tracking the evidence inside.

THE BUNK ROOM

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

FOUR PEAS IN A POD

The kids may call dibs on this room but guests of all ages can appreciate a sweet built-in bunk design... at least around here they can! Rift white oak carries in the natural element cohesive with the rest of the home and gives the bunks their structure. The corner tower wastes no space carving out a stairway nook on the other side.

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

THE BATHROOM

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

BLACK + WHITE BATH

There's no gray area in this high contrast design, just a touch of muted green. Timeless subway tiles and paneling add dimension to the colorless walls while a cross pattern fills the dark floor with some fun.

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

THE DOUBLE ROOM

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

DOUBLE THE LOVE

These hanging headboards and soft purple linens are the bunk room's toughest competition. Paired with a geo-detailed dresser, two wardrobes and a hanging chair in each window nook, we can see why guests would choose to stay here.

Fun fact: The "hanging headboards" are mounted to the wall with z-bars but the custom curtain rods really complete the whimsical look.

BLACKBAND FAMILY HOME // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

A COLLECTION OF NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN NEWPORT BEACH HOMES THAT YOU CAN TOUR FROM ANYWHERE + THE BLACKBAND FAMILY'S HOME IS ONE OF THEM!

47TH ANNUAL CDM HOME TOUR

The annual Corona del Mar Home Tour fundraiser is a favorite for design-lovers near and far. Homeowners in the area generously open their homes to be toured by community participants and supporters flying in from coast to coast, all benefitting CDM's Middle and High Schools. Southern California is known for their neighborhoods to be full of top notch dream homes so this isn't just any school fundraiser — it's an exclusive look into magazine-worthy interiors designed by local professionals and homeowners with an eye for design.

This year’s virtual addition offers a unique opportunity to get to know a more in-depth story behind the designs of the six homes and the stories that make them personal. No bobbing through a crowded home peeking around heads to see the details — the professional film crew is capturing all the good stuff for you! You'll get exclusive access to "walk through" these incredible homes on your screen, hear from the homeowners and designers that brought them to life, and even learn from masterclasses with local professionals.

Another bonus: These tours will be streaming for several days throughout February so give your Netflix series a break and soak in the inspiration from these limited edition on-demand shows. Streaming begins February 10th.

Sit back, relax and get your tickets HERE!

THE BLACKBAND FAMILY HOME

This tour is extra special to the Blackband family and Blackband Design team because we're unveiling Greg and Wendy's personal home! Their slice of paradise on Balboa Island has been thoughtfully renovated to maximize entertaining space and reflect their favorite styles from around the globe. It's a one-of-a-kind showcase of Wendy's personal style and it's sure to get you thinking outside of the box!

The Farm is a dream, countryside retreat built to be shared with the luckiest of family and friends.

STYLE IN FULL SWING

An oversized pivot door with wood-stained planks arranged to create a chevron pattern makes for an architectural statement and offers a warm welcome upon arriving at the first guest suite of the hallway.

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

A complex color story of muted greens, inky blues, sun-kissed pinks and golden hues mix with natural elements throughout the suites. Each room tells the story with its own flair of personality while relating to the home as a whole.

.

CONCRETE OR QUARTZ?

Quartz slabs were mitered together to create the illusion of a thick, concrete countertop. Integrated sinks follow suit with their minimalist style mirroring the simplicity of nature.

MITERED EDGE:

When slabs (or other building materials) are cut at a 45 degree angle so that two come together to form a corner.

ON THE BRIGHT SIDE

Warm pops of color give the "yellow room" its name while neutral furnishings and a decorative rug keep the overall style sophisticated.

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

INTIMATE + INTENTIONAL

The design team approached these guest rooms with the same attention to detail as the rest of the home. We wanted the suites to feel special and thoughtful... a sense of bed + breakfast charm in a luxurious, private retreat.

GUEST BEDROOM + EN SUITE

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

ONE WITH NATURE

The serene views on display in each room were the foundation of the designs. We didn't want to bring in any colors or silhouettes that would compete with the surroundings, so we kept the furnishings low and muted. Tall headboards against the recessed walls balance the height of the room and bring coziness to the open-air space.

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

Layers of textiles on the beds and a mix of materials on the nightstands add so much depth to the design without distracting from the setting.

Taupe-y tones in the suite are given new life with fresh patterns and effortlessly enhance the down-to-earth ambiance.

INDOOR - OUTDOOR

The main living space extends out to the front porch with its huge pocket doors leaving these woven rocking chairs an obvious choice to soak in all the serenity beyond.

Check out our main living tour for the backstory on these rockers!

THE BACK

Acres of rolling hills, growing vineyards and undiscovered trails make up the beautiful "backyard" of this property. With all of that adventure around, we made sure to create comfortable spaces to relax and breathe in the fresh air, close to home.

DINNER PARTY PARADISE

Rustic barn doors off the family den open wide to a terrace-covered dining space encouraging effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining.

The light sweeping in through the doorway fills the otherwise dark + moody den — a must see in this tour!

INTRODUCING PROJECT MARINER SHORES

October 8, 2020 by blackband Filed Under: Blackband Blog, Interiors Leave a Comment

RENDERING REVEAL VIA INTRACORP

There's a new neighborhood coming to Newport Beach

and we are so excited to be in the mix of it all!

THE ISLE AT MARINER SHORES

The Isle at Mariner Shores is a new development of 36 townhomes thoughtfully designed to reflect the laidback yet luxurious lifestyle that locals love in Newport Beach. Internationally accredited and locally established real estate development team Intracorp invited us along to bring our custom home experience to the interiors of their coastal farmhouses. These brand new homes will be hitting the market in Spring 2021 and we're taking you with us (virtually) every step of the way!

LOTS TO LOVE FOR THIS LOCATION

the_isle_mariner_shores_newport_beach_map

Located where Eastside Costa Mesa's 17th Street meets Newport Beach, this sweet spot enjoys the balance between a vibrant social life and the ease of relaxation. Scenic strolls through Back Bay, bike rides to the beach, retail therapy at local boutiques and menus full of unique and healthy dining experiences will keep homeowners' calendars full of all their favorite things.

COASTAL FARMHOUSE CURB APPEAL

INSPIRATION IMAGE VIA BLACKBAND DESIGN

This community will boast the best of Newport Beach neighborhoods with clean, coastal siding, bright whites contrasting rich hues and stone that adds the layer of warmth to make a house feel like home.

INTERIOR DESIGN DIRECTION

PROJECT IRIS // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // MIKEN CONSTRUCTION // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

With a custom home approach, we're bringing our Blackband twist to The Isle's coastal farmhouse architecture. Every once in a while, we branch out of the personal custom home clients (which we love so much) and our team gets to be a part of developing spaces for multiple families and individuals to enjoy. These townhomes will incorporate popular elements known to the neighborhood along with unexpected touches that make it your own. There's no doubt these homes will be full of style – just like you!

Tap through our "mariner shores" story highlights on Instagram for a preview of the three unique styles we've dreamt up for the models.

CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS

"We kept the whole house really light and airy with these beautiful muted jewel tones and then broke it up with dark walls in the den that extend across the hall. I love the heaviness of this room and the balance it brings to the home."

A killer slab wall sets the tone for this sophisticated bathroom while seagrass wallpaper and quirky "farm friends" art remind us that the design is not meant to be taken too seriously.

LAUNDRY ROOM

PROJECT SANTA YNEZ // PATTERSON CUSTOM HOMES // BRANDON ARCHITECTS // BLACKBAND DESIGN // RYAN GARVIN PHOTOGRAPHY

"I love where the laundry room is situated in the home — it’s between the main living and sleeping quarters and the window peeks out to a hidden patio off the kitchen pantry. It's full of style and function and overall such a fun laundry room design."

Sprawling hills and rustic charm set the stage for a dream project in wine country of Santa Ynez Valley.

This passion project of sorts resulted in striking design features, a beautiful execution of craftsmanship by all parties involved and priceless memories that will be treasured for years to come.

Vaulted ceilings and the overall large volume of the home allowed for statement lighting without obstructing any views — both a must on the homeowners' wishlist. The fixtures and outdoor scenery play a huge role in the home design.

They arrived on photoshoot day and instantly became one of the family's favorite spots to soak in the scenic views and serenity.
