San Diego Modern Home Tour

October 14, 2017

The Modern Architecture + Design Society returns to SoCal to host the fifth annual San Diego Modern Home Tour on Saturday, October 14. During the self-guided event, tour-goers will get the inside scoop from homeowners on what it’s like to live in a cutting-edge modern home, and learn directly from the on-site architects, builders, and designers on how they find inspiration for these fascinating residences. Most homes on this year’s tour are new builds or recent renovations, but there is something special in store: a classic Southern California beach home, located in Del Mar and designed by Sim Bruce Richards (photographed here). It was built around 1980 and is one of the last ones Richards completed before passing in 1983. The true masterpiece by an iconic American architect is also currently for sale.

The San Diego Modern Home Tour is a featured event in this year’s Archtoberfest celebration, presented by the San Diego Architectural Foundation. The SDAF has been named the tour’s local nonprofit beneficiary for the fourth year in a row. Use promo code RANCHCOAST to save $10 on each ticket. bit.ly/2017sdmod
