# reVISION

> When you change the way you see things, the things you see change.

## About

reVISION explores a profound truth: When you change the way you see things, the things you see change. The project documents and celebrates transformation — how the unwanted, the discarded, the unvalued, or the simply ignored meet our attention, ingenuity, and resourcefulness, revealing a world of astonishing potential in unexpected places.

Founded on 30 years of collecting transformation stories, reVISION invites visitors to discover examples, learn perspective-shifting practices, experience interactive challenges, and connect with a community of people who see differently.

## Core Philosophy

reVISION is built on the belief that a shift in perspective can lead to brilliant creations, remarkable solutions, and extraordinary innovations. It's not just about external transformation — it's also about discovering simple, unseen wonders and profound insights in everyday life.

Core values include: Resourcefulness, Creativity, Curiosity, Innovation, Vision, Possibility, Connection, Love, Kindness, Trust, Resilience, Courage, Patience, Humility, Adaptation, Wonder, Freedom, Authenticity, and Gratitude.
