Palindrome
A speculative design toolkit and a game of futures of our own making, for Danish Design Center and Helsinki Design Week
Palindrome is a tool of agency that specializes in our unique take on storytelling for the future.
Speculative design is a framework that allows us to imagine how reality could be. It does not aim to predict concrete futures so that we arrive to them. Instead, it prompts us to ask ‘What if?’, and raises scenarios from which to obtain hints of our present in order to manifest tools for change and adaptation.
Palindrome is the tool we use in our consulting practice so that our clients see their own future before they exist in it in later months.
The development of Palindrome is documented in The Time Travel Transmissions– from research, to its launch at the Danish Design Center and during Helsinki Design Week.
