THE CHARLES MOORE FOUNDATION

Introducing

Our First

Digital Edition

PLACENOTES is suited for Apple iOS, Android, and Kindle Fire. All users can download copies for both smartphones and tablets.

The Sea Ranch

Apple iOS $8.99

Android $8.99

Kindle Fire $8.99

PLACENOTES is not available for desktops or laptops.

PLACENOTES is a travel guide that seeks to lead people to places that truly matter.

PLACENOTES by-passes all of the ordinary, mass-produced places that now surround us. We guide you instead to the places that move, inspire, and amuse us, to places that linger in our memories and imagination.

PLACENOTES is now wholly and wonderfully digital. The PLACENOTES App is available for all of your mobile devices, both smartphones and tablets.

Life Takes Place™

Where would we be without good places?

Good places matter.

As everywhere looks more and more like nowhere,

we lead you to places that make you feel to be somewhere.

Mind your place.

We shape our places and our places shape us.

We won't lead you just anywhere,

but we will lead you down a garden path.

Kevin Keim, the Director of the Charles Moore Foundation, invented PLACENOTES.

He has written and photographed 13 print editions, and he has designed the new PLACENOTES digital platform.

Thank you Jake McCuiston for your technical expertise, Margo Miller for your expert copy editing, and Davis Niendorff for your philosophical and artisitic guidance!

PLACENOTES The Sea Ranch is the first of many new digital editions to come.

The Charles Moore Foundation is already working with Cities, Universities & Colleges, Cultural Institutions, House Museums, Historic Sites, Healthcare Organizations, Parks Organizations, and Corporations to create Digital Editions from the scale of a region—such as Napa Valley—to the scale of a single historic site, such as the San Antonio Riverwalk.
