From its Southern California origins, the Ranch house is an icon of American design and emblematic of all things midcentury. We will cover its history, spread, design features, and revival, focusing particularly on Durham’s neighborhoods. Join us May 7 at 6pm for the story of this classic American home and then join us for a two-day tour of Ranch-style homes around Durham May 18-19 (separate ticket required for the home tour: available for purchase here).
