See What You Can't See is a project that consists of a captivating promo for a prop and a building proposal, both driven by a shared concern: climate change. As a collective responsibility, we must actively seek effective measures to address climate change, and our journey begins with a comprehensive exploration of its root causes.

The project initiated with the creation of a tool called 'The Box', a handheld device that utilises a chemical reaction to reveal invisible particles in the air. Embarking on a larger scale, the building proposal envisions a space research centre featuring laboratories and manufacturing areas dedicated to the making of satellites and micro-devices. This infrastructure holds the potential to revolutionise our understanding of climate change by providing the necessary tools to monitor and explore our planet from a remote perspective. This, in turn, will pave the way for innovative strategies to mitigate and regulate climate change. Situated just 10 minutes away from the planned spaceport in Gwynedd, Harlech offers an ideal location for this centre, enhancing the project's prospects for success.
