The dry bar at the Santa Barbara estate is a study in combining materials sourced from multiple countries into a cohesive design. French porcelain countertops provide a refined, antique-inspired surface, while hand-painted Moroccan tiles create a vibrant and textured backsplash. American rustic hickory cabinets ground the space with warmth and natural character. Lincoln Rogers and John McDonough discuss how coordinating these international shipments and ensuring every component fit together required meticulous planning from the earliest design phases. The finished room demonstrates how imported artisan materials can work alongside domestic wood to create a dry bar that feels both worldly and inviting.
