A Passion for MCM – A Tour of Mid-Century Modern Homes will take viewers into three areas of the country that celebrate the Mid-Century Modern lifestyle and keep it alive every day: Starlight Village in the suburbs of Austin; Wilder Lane outside of Denver, Colorado; and one of the best-known spots for the MCM movement, Silicon Valley, California.

During the live virtual event, attendees can take the tour from the safety and comfort of their home, with the ability to revisit (or catch up on) any segments they missed after the tour ends via recordings of the Tour event.

The homes will be showcased using real-time 3D imaging streams, while the MA+DS host and architect (or designer, builder) leads viewers through the home and discusses the fine details of the design. Questions will be answered and plenty of expert advice and tips shared. The event honors one of the most recognizable and successful movements in residential architecture + design, and those who continue to keep it alive today.

In addition to a look at the Mid-Century Modern architecture, tour-goers will get a very special look into artist Lance Jackson’s home and work. Jackson’s creative career, steeped deep in the modern movement, spans over 40 years and successfully achieves the delicate balance between the rational and the abstract. His unique understanding of how images, forms, textures and colors can stir human emotions has allowed his fine art to be on museum display and in a number of private and corporate collections.
