Dreamers: The Art of Revery Architecture

Public opening reception: Tuesday, May 19, 6–8 p.m.
About the exhibition
What is the value of dreams in a profit-driven world of rational needs? Revery Architecture’s response is that the aesthetic imagination enriches our built environment not only for the individual end-user, but for the wider public. In keeping with this credo, the studio is now part of a new West Coast paradigm that reasserts the value of art at the heart of architecture.
