It consists of a series of models, perspective views and collages arranged alongside artists’ drawings, paintings and photographs in the main gallery at arc en rêve, reflecting a way of conceiving architecture that excels in paradoxical situations by playing with the tense relationship between contradiction and perfection.

“Everything Architecture” is based on the idea that the added value of architecture is tiny compared to the confusing mass of buildings that make up our environment. According to Kersten Geers and David Van Severen, its value arise from precise decisions made throughout the life of the project—especially with regard to how it relates to culture and the world at large.
