Corporate identity along with strategic design and scenarios

The spectrum of requests from clients has broadened considerably in the last months:
Towards the end of last year we were challenged to develop a concept for the entire company image of an enterprise that operates in 60 countries: the corporate identity along with the strategic design.

 
   The future was also the focus of attention at the EUROPEAN FUTURISTS CONFERENCE Lucerne from November 20 – 21, 2007

How can you draw something that does not yet exist? “Self-reproducing space chickens”, “artificial dragonflies”, “intelligent microbes anno 2050” or scenarios such as “taking over of power by the industry” and “green power”???

The leading experts in the field of futurology met in Lucerne. Reinhard Kuchenmüller’s talent to transform content into picture metaphors spontaneously was in high demand. At the end of the day, he summarized the future-oriented lectures and discussions in a slide show which received a big round of applause.

You can view the pictures on the website of European Futurists the pictures are next to the respective lecturers under
