I’m excited to announce that I’m scheduling a wide range of architecture and design tours throughout the Los Angeles area – and points beyond.

Earlier this month, I inaugurated the L.A. Decorative Arts, Interior Design & Architecture Meetup group with a tour of the mid-century gem Sheats Goldstein House in Beverly Hills, which attracted 25 enthusiastic attendees. And I have two more in the works – an Art Deco tour and brunch onboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach this Sunday, May 17 and a San Pedro trip May 30.

Outside the Meetup Group forum, I’m also organizing a journey back in time to Victorian San Jose and San Francisco. Highlights of the July 1-5 tour include the Winchester Mystery House, a private visit to Bradbury & Bradbury, special visit with PBS and HGTV design personality and author Paul Duchscherer, accommodations at the beautiful Adagio Hotel, a champagne cruise of San Francisco Bay, a visit to the Fine Arts Museums, brunch overlooking the Pacific Ocean at Sutro’s, and much more!

I’m also hoping to organize an architecture tour Labor Day weekend of Chicago with noted architect Christopher Sorensen and a trip to Mexico in late September. Stay tuned for details.
