Atlas of the Future
Atlas of the Future collects projects to make the world better form the whole world.
Atlas of the Future would like to democratise the future: to raise the profiles of the people and projects working to create a better world. Everyone should be able to understand and engage in the topics that affect us all.
Thirty years of digital revolution have brought previously unimaginable advances in the way we live and work.
Today mankind does incredible things. We will soon be able to change the bodies we are born with, printing 3D organs to save them when they fail and creating birth-control microchips that women can turn on and off. We shape the world around us, transforming violent cities like Medellín by building ultra-modern libraries and putting moving staircases on mountains. We have flipped education to provide the world with a global interactive classroom.
Atlas of the Future brings designers, innovators and inventors together from all over the world - and bring the attention of their work to the rest of us.
