Dreamers Avenue on InstagramA ridiculous game about a serious idea
Cities can make room for a healthier future.
Behind the absurdity is a serious idea: cities deserve clean air, trees, safe cycling and space for people.
BYE BYE, REFINERY! uses fiction, humour and pixel art to imagine what can happen when a city begins to change.
Greener cities
More trees and resilient public spaces can turn an industrial horizon into a place for life.
More space for people
Safe cycling, play and public space belong in the picture of a healthy city.
