A Decade of Sea Ranch Pilgrimages Led to This Unorthodox, Color-Forward Retreat
"it's little surprise that Clara Jung and her husband, Sam Zun, found their own countercultural path there. For more than a decade, the Bay Area lawyers escaped to Sea Ranch rentals each New Year, a head-clearing ritual through fertility struggles, the surrogacy journeys that brought their two children into the world, and Jung's pivot from corporate law to interior design."
"Buying a home in the community was just as unorthodox: a co-ownership pact-sealed over wine in a Paris speakeasy in 2021-with another Bay Area couple, Jung's former design clients. "For how many lawyers are involved-three of us have JDs-it's surprisingly informal," Jung says. "It really just comes down to friendship and trust." A shared Google Calendar helps, keeping dates straight for each family's respective stays."
Clara Jung and her husband, Sam Zun transformed a 1972 Kent Linn house at Sea Ranch with reverence, restraint, and bold color choices. The couple spent more than a decade renting Sea Ranch homes each New Year as a restorative ritual during fertility struggles and surrogacy journeys. The house reflects Sea Ranch vernacular through redwood cladding, geometric forms, sloped roofs, and expansive skylights responding to a forested site. The household is co-owned with another Bay Area couple under a 2021 pact, coordinated via a shared Google Calendar. Jung founded Banner Day Interiors after leaving corporate law.
