palienish
The Panda is white, black and asian and eats bamboo. It's an open minded creature concerned about the future. The Alien comes from outer space. It's a special creature that thinks laterally. The Fish swims smoothly in the water. It's an elegant creature that moves fast and silently. So it's the Palienish, an open minded, special, smooth creature that thinks differently, moves silently, and is concerned about the future. The Palienish is not a logo. It's a state of mind.

Predicting a sustainable future
In the coming future, global population as well as the temperature of the planet will grow dramatically, while fossil resources will decline. There will be a need of more and more energy and food, and the necessity to reduce green house gas emissions. A designer, that is an innate specialist of future prediction because his work will happen forward in time, has to take in account these apparent limitations and use them as resources. A great responsibility towards future generations is on our shoulders, and our job is to face this amazing challenge with creativity!
