About  [Edit]

More than just a designer of spaces, we are an imaginer of them. We search for ways to go beyond the expected or the mundane, and create living, breathing, human-scale environments and communities that provide a blueprint for a more sustainable, more diverse and more efficient world. We are new urbanists, to the nth degree.

Our goal is to find the best and brightest ideas by letting bold minds run free. We tap into a wealth of places, processes, histories and values to find novel, ingenious solutions for the spaces we all share.

At Archiventure, we believe it is our responsibility to suspend disbelief and to fully examine all possibilities that can benefit anyone that dwells in our spaces or is touched by them. And that extends to the entire world around us.

We have recently launched the Re:Vision competition. Re:Vision was born out of the belief that each of us has a unique perspective along with a wealth of ideas, energy and resources. Within us lies boundless potential. These competitions are about inspiring innovation, tapping into existing ideas, and using them in new and amazing ways.

Why Re:Vision? It’s about seeing the world in a different way. It’s about seeing yourself differently...full of big ideas and new possibilities. Re:Vision is a place where those ideas are put into action, supported and encouraged by a diverse group of people dedicated to making WHAT IF, WHAT IS.

We have evolved. Our technology can support an entirely different way of relating, of being. The world is now effortlessly connected, ideas easily shared and communicated. While our cities, long a melting pot of diversity and forward thinking, have become toxic places of crowded isolation, conflict-ridden wasted lands, where many fear to raise their children. WHAT IF we came together and pooled our ideas, energy and resources to create a different kind of urban experience? WHAT IF living in a city were a safe, healthy, beautiful experience that enriched both the community and the environment?
