DREAM Collaborative delivers projects through a fully integrated model that unites real estate development, architecture, and planning into one coordinated platform.
DREAM Collaborative is a Boston-based, award-winning 100% MBE architecture, planning, and development firm. Since our founding in 2008, we have earned national recognition for delivering innovative, human-centered architectural design; expert, transformative planning; and forward-thinking leadership in equitable real estate development.
As a leader in collaborative and community-driven projects, we listen deeply, respond to neighborhood priorities, champion environmental stewardship, and push the boundaries of advanced design and construction methods. DREAM’s differentiators inspire confidence — grounded in a commitment to excellence, deep expertise, and an unwavering dedication to treating our clients as true partners. With an international portfolio and a diverse global staff, we bring worldwide perspectives and best practices to every project we undertake.
DREAM Collaborative delivers full-service architectural design services, guiding projects from concept through construction administration. Our expertise spans a broad spectrum of project types and scales —from new construction and adaptive reuse to deep energy retrofits and renovations—drawing on both national and international best practices. In addition to our architectural and planning services, DREAM offers alternate services that help envision, plan, and activate projects. Drawing on deep national and international experience, we support public- and private-sector partners across diverse geographies. DREAM Collaborative’s early-phase services help turn ideas into clear, actionable project direction.
DREAM brings deeply diverse backgrounds and perspectives to every project. Our team is over 50% women and we hail from countries around the world. We believe that broader perspectives and diversity of thought make for more informed decision making, more contextual design, and ultimately, more positive impacts.
