From Ranch to Raunch

Documentary looking at how the 1970s California swinging scene, when wife-swapping became a reality amid a new, sexually liberated way of life, created a new design aesthetic. Captured in all its glorious excess and tastelessness by the movie Boogie Nights, Los Angeles was a land of bachelor pads where conventional suburban homes - ranch houses - were transformed with the addition of shag pile carpet and new inventions like the waterbed and the Jacuzzi, into sensual, swinging party houses.
