Cosmic House, the masterpiece of American landscape architect Charles Jencks, stands as a pivotal landmark of Post-Modernism, renowned for its rich symbolism and innovative design. We’ll split into small groups, taking turns to explore the house and take part in a walk-and-talk session for peer-to-peer mentoring and sharing.
We’ve arranged a special slot for those who cannot arrive early due to caregiving responsibilities. As spaces are limited, please only indicate on the RSVP form if you require a later 9:30 am arrival time.

The Sundial Room faces south over the garden the room with radial seating around a sun dial.
The Architectural Library is Charles’ study with a tent-like roof painted like the sky; it is a ‘City of Books’ designed by Charles so that each bookshelf relates to the thematic style or individual architect whose books are collected therein
