Work by UO Department of Architecture Head Judith Sheine is featured in a ten-page spread in the July/August issue of Dwell magazine. The article spotlights the Ramirez house, a project Sheine worked on with Norman Millar Architects from 2004-2012 in Sea Ranch, California.
Sea Ranch is an intentional community developed in the 1960s along a rugged ten-mile section of coastline built as a “challenge [to] demonstrate that people can inhabit a beautiful and fragile land located along a wild stretch of the California coast without destroying it”, the community’s website notes.
Sheine’s project “takes the Sea Ranch principles to heart,” according to Dwell writer Fred A. Bernstein. “Sea Ranch stalwarts have embraced it.”
Millar serves as dean at Woodbury School of Architecture in Southern California.
