       Lateral Thinking Factory (LTF) is a strategic consultancy - based in Brussels,
Paris and Madrid - which contributes to better human habitat through design, validation
and spread of new models at environmental, economical and social levels. LTF primarily
operates within the fields of architecture, urban planning and construction.

        LTF is a Think-Act network, connecting expertise with decision makers
interested in changing the way they grasp and develop human habitat. Think embeds
research, training, knowledge exchange and dissemination. Act means adopting a
structured process nurtured with innovative methods, to generate holistic vision and
lateral paths for idea generation, in order to set milestones for a successful design
implementation.

        LTF missions aim at supporting decision makers in both the private and public
sector; for the definition of criteria and objectives to be reached within their projects, in
order to achieve positive impacts. The approach is based on a collective creation
process, involving teams that are already working in a given project as well as ad-hoc
high-level experts. The goal is to explore, following structured methods, the innovation
paths and opportunities within each mission in order to identify viable applications that
will then calibrate the projects developed by the design teams.

        LTF manages an international network of professional experts, able to validate
and transform insights obtained during the creative workshop sessions into consistent
projects. Those experts usually collaborate within complex missions and are able to
swiftly react to our partners demands. The Lateral Thinking terminology reflects our
ambition to address key issues in adopting, voluntarily, a lateral approach; in order to
act upstream of objectives and specifications provided by the contractors to better help
them making the right decisions from the project inception for maximum added values.

       LTF is Michael Braungart privileged interlocutor (Cradle to Cradle paradigm co-
author and EPEA CEO), in areas related to construction, architecture and urban design.
Our agency assists decision makers willing to obtain recognition from the Cradle to
Cradle community, compatible with certifications such as Breeam, Leed, HQE, Valideo
which are now progressively value its advantages.
