Drift Santa Barbara is a 45-key hotel at 524 State Street, revitalizing a historic building over 100 years old. Once home to the Church of Scientology, the project transforms the space into a modern hotel while preserving its Mediterranean exterior. The design features raw materials like concrete and steel, juxtaposed with the historic facade. The open first floor includes a coffee shop, restaurant, gallery, and bar, fostering community interaction. Minimalist 170 sq ft suites offer luxury without excess.
