At once elemental and expressive, The Skog House stands as a rare Brutalist landmark in Santa Barbaras architectural landscape. Designed by J.F. Strickland and flawlessly reimagined by Ferguson-Ettinger, the residence engages the hillside with conviction—its bold geometric forms and cantilevered volumes emerging from the terrain in a choreographed dialogue of mass and void. The raw concrete plaster exterior, intentionally left to weather with time, contrasts with rich mahogany paneled doors and lintels, rift-sawn oak paneling, and a combination of teak and ipe wood. Inside, spatial volumes shift from soaring to compressed, guiding movement and framing curated moments of light and art. Clerestory windows and shed forms invite a rhythmic interplay of shadow and sky, while expansive Fleetwood doors open to unobstructed ocean and harbor views. A detached garage and office echo the material language of the main house, completing a cohesive compound that honors the integrity of its original design. Architectural in ambition, and reverent in detailthis is a home for the collector, the connoisseur.
