Architecture of a dream world

The book “Living in a Dream” offers a futuristic insight into the world of imaginary architecture and interiors. The book introduces artists and designers who use AI and 3D technology to create visionary designs. These digital dreamscapes combine the surreal with the technically feasible and range from futuristic buildings to poetic scenarios. A recurring motif is the fusion of art and architecture, which transports the viewer into a world in which the boundaries between reality and fantasy are fluid.

Play with shapes and colours

The bold use of colours and shapes is particularly striking. Projects such as the “Raspberry Villa” by Lemeal Studio or the work of Carlos Bañon Blazquez rely on bold colour combinations and curved designs. These designs radiate lightness and playfulness and turn everyday life into a colourful adventure. At the same time, the designs retain their functionality, making them more than just works of art. The result is an attractive contrast between bold shapes and structures suitable for everyday use.

Tradition meets modernity

Many of the works presented are based on the idea of modernising traditional architecture. Projects such as “Casa Atibaia” by Nicholas Préaud or “Rolling Green” by David Alf show how historical building styles are combined with modern materials and technologies. This approach raises the question of how humanity will deal with architectural heritage in the future while searching for new, sustainable solutions. The book creates a strong link between the past and the future, with the digital world serving as a bridge.

Architecture of Futurism

The dream landscapes shown are more than just speculation, is the convincing conclusion of the book. They inspire us to imagine a future in which architecture is not only functional, but also emotionally moving. “Living in a Dream” makes it clear that the boundaries between reality and fantasy are becoming increasingly blurred in modern architecture. The designs show how AI and 3D design can contribute not only to inspiration, but also to the realisation of completely new living spaces of the future.
