Tickets cost $25 in advance and $30 on tour day.
The 2015 homes were selected by an independent architecture jury “based on a variety of criteria including: overall design concept, how well clients’ needs were met, relationship to site and context, sensitivity to material selections and environmental considerations and special quality,” according to a news release.
