re:future lab is a 21st-century art-based think tank, an experimental laboratory, and a school of the futures rooted in the arts at the intersection of the humanities, natural sciences, and technology.

Since 2020, we launched a multidimensional program including exhibitions, symposia, workshops, consulting, and publications.

By imparting artistic intelligence, we help people navigate contemporary challenges and turn possible futures into tangible, transformative realities.

We help leaders from business, institutions, and culture to tackle complex issues, drive innovation, and cultivate sustainable relationships.

Our practice is arts- and design-based, systems-oriented, and process-driven. Our methods are dialogical, imaginative and participative.

The re:future lab is led by its founder Madeleine Schwinge, in collaboration with an international network of fellows whose commonalities across their diverse expertise include their concern with holistic futures.

We are based in Berlin with satellites in Paris, London, Chicago, Basel, and beyond.

Creating a platform where protagonists from the fields of art and science join forces and deliberate on the question “How do we want to live?” is the proper approach to collaborating on ideas that make our world a little better and our thinking a little freer. An important leap has been taken in Berlin to turn visions into reality.
