Bobby Webb is an amazing designer who creates magnificent estates around the Santa Barbara area in California. I have been a huge fan ever since he and Steve worked on a project together in nearby Summerland.
I thought I would share with you images of his own home that he shares with his long time partner Michael Corbett. Their home was published in Santa Barbara Magazine (one of my favorite lifestyle publications) in June 2006.
Although their estate is close to downtown Santa Barbara, you would never know it when you enter the gates. Bobby and Michael have a large collection of exotic birds, including these beautiful pink flamingos.

One of the original buildings from when the property was a working ranch sits
next to one of three ponds that Bobby designed.
Bobby and Michael's Caribbean influenced home sits in a secluded canyon.
One of the many porches that wraps around the main house.
Carved Indian Architectural elements add interesting detail to their home that was completed in 1995.
The dark wood of these pieces look magnificent against the green walls.
Their Hepplewhite-style chairs and dining table were made in England by one of my favorite furniture makers, Elijah Slocum.
This Victorian fretwork is an example of Bobby Webb's attention to detail.
Two Italian Renaissance chairs make a beautiful seating arrangement in their living room.
Their bedroom is my favorite room in the house. It is tropical elegance at its best.
Sleeping in this bedroom would make me feel like I was on vacation all year long.
