Description
Riggs designed this house on Middle Road in Montecito for herself in the mid-twenties; she lived there until her death in 1984. The house, named Clavelitos or "little carnation," contained two bedrooms, ample outdoor space, and large fireplaces. The Spanish Colonial Revival style was championed by George Washington Smith, who was Riggs' mentor; she worked for Smith up until his death in 1930.
