Lutah Maria Riggs: Kiler house (Montecito, Calif.)

The house for Leslie Kiler and family overlooks the Santa Ynez mountain range, which rises from the oak-covered hills of Montecito. With simple, clean lines, the house is clad in redwood and features a 10 foot ceiling in the living room, which lines up and frames the view of the mountains. Riggs gave the living room and dining room a wall of windows facing the view, as well as extended the eaves for an overhang to partially shelter an outdoor dining area.
