Starting with a short video from the current SFMOMA show on The Sea Ranch, you will learn about the cast of characters that came together to create the most highly awarded community in the 1960s and 1970s, why it was significant and why the lessons learned are still relevant. I will discuss the land planning, landscape architecture, and the architecture of The Sea Ranch and why they work so well (and why some of them don’t!). All of this, and some inside anecdotes on life at The Sea Ranch, will be shared.
