Transition design

Making futures real with tangible initiatives and strategies

We use the full arsenal of design to activate futures, shaping long-term strategies, bringing out visions in products and services that are already being implemented, thus shortening the time lapse between understanding change and taking action in response to it.

We turn visions into tangible actions.

To ensure that business and technology go hand in hand, we plan strategically, aligning the technological capabilities of companies with their production plans, leading them into the future on a path of value-driven change.

By considering futures using the tools of design, we have the means and the awareness to improve the effectiveness of our design work even now, by incorporating a systematic openness to the future in the products and services we produce. 

We help companies and organisations use visions of the future to trigger a broad debate within markets and civil society to bring about a virtuous change in collective thought and opinions.

Global energy transformation company – Starting with a backcasting approach we have defined the ideal 2030 future vision and then worked backwards to identify execution strategies: electric vehicles can become high tech sensors for energy optimization, unveiling new sustainable revenue streams from all around the smart cities.

Sketchin - Transition Strategy - ERSL deliverable

ERSL - Ente Regionale per lo Sviluppo del Luganese – Weak signals, news, and events reveal possible lines of change for the future. Starting from those signals, we defined the key attributes of a desirable future for the Luganese, using stories created by the citizens. Alongside the Regional Institution for the Luganese Development, we built a new vision for the territory, together with people that live and work in the region, and the officials and mayors from the Luganese cities.
