Welcome to our Human Futures Lab

We are now entering a Fourth Age of clothing in which our clothes are set to become the tools that help us survive and thrive in a world of climate change, space travel, and resource scarcity. So our Human Futures Lab applies our radical approach to innovation to the fields that clothing will combine with next – robotics, habitation, computing, data, and AI – creating a series of extraordinary experiments looking at how we’ll live over the next century.

Vollebak Island. A visionary concept for the future of habitation

Designed with visionary architect Bjarke Ingels, Vollebak Island is the start of a series of extraordinary projects looking at how we’ll live over the next century in a world of climate change, space travel, and resource scarcity.

A radical plan for saving the world

Vollebak Island is the proof of concept for Bjarke Ingels’ ‘Plan for the Planet’ – a step by step planning guide to a carbon neutral human civilisation on earth.

Why we’re building the future with Bjarke Ingels

As the pioneers of ‘hedonistic sustainability,’ Bjarke and his team at Bjarke Ingels Group show how visionary design can answer some of the world’s biggest challenges whilst still being playful, simple, and even fun.
