Bikablo visual dictionaries and learning tools
Inside each resource is a wealth of visual vocabulary, image ideas and visualization methods that have become a standard in the international visual practitioner community due to their simplicity and systematic nature.
The visual concepts in our books and tools are based on the same drawing technique that we teach in our training courses. The content in these resources is in German and English. These resources have been distributed exclusively by our partner Neuland for over 15 years.

The contents of our four visual dictionaries now also available digitally on all devices and the bikablo app.
bikablo® 1 Visual Dictionary
Your entry point into the world of visualization.
Do you speak bikablo? Martin Haussmann has compiled more than 400 compelling pictograms and key images and organized them by theme in 144 pages – specially tailored to the needs of visual trainers, presenters and consultants. The drawings are so simple that you can easily copy, vary, and recombine them in analog or digital form. In the latest edition, we have completely revised our bestseller and adapted it to the current, simplified drawing technique.

bikablo® 2.0 Visual Dictionary
New images for Meetings, Training & Learning
bikablo® 2.0 picks up where bikablo® 1 leaves off: the book offers insider tips for professional visualizations, a best-of chapter of the most popular figures, graphics and symbols along the complete poster layouts for the most diverse training and facilitation situations. In addition, it features chapters structured by content or topics such as “Workshop/ Meeting/Seminar/Training” or “Company/Organization/Market”. The bikablo® 2.0 is a must for everyone already inspired by bikablo® 1, because now there is hardly not a single topic that doesn’t have its own picture!

The “small figures with big emotions” recreate feelings and situations so simply and effectively that they quickly become your go-to resource – in coaching, training, mediation, projects and team development.
