Join the next era of Futures Thinking
Hi - We are Trend Atelier.
We author visionnaire futures.
Redefine future foresight in a changing world
'Everything we have created in human history is a product of our intelligence, our ability to make predictions, and then intervene on those predictions to change the course of the world'.
- Mustafa Suleyman, Deep Mind and Inflection AI founder.
The global polycrisis means we need to urgently author preferred futures. Decades old foresight approaches need reassessing. Novel processes, principles and regenerative metrics must be pioneered by the creative and foresight industries. Trend Atelier ushers in a new era of future foresight for business leaders in the creative and future foresight sectors.

Hi, I am your futuring guide
Years of climate change and sustainability advocacy, whilst advising organisations in the creative industry, have taught me creative leaders and foresight piers need a regeneration reboot.
The World Building framework and our tailored experience reassess futures thinking and doing, and equip you with a new toolkit. Along the way you commit to community. To quote the futurist Jane McGonigal: "Finding and sharing signals of change is the most essential habit of futures thinking."
I hope you will join Trend Atelier and myself as your guide. We are on a mission to drive change and redefine foresight as a force for bold future visions, not trend fetichism. But we need more than good intentions. We need the method, philosophies and community to explore, envision and implement, together.
