What does the future hold for SEE MONSTER and other inherited structures, be those physical, social or environmental? ⁠ The future of reuse is an exciting one. SEE MONSTER aims to ignite positive conversation about the future of these structures and renewables.⁠

SEE MONSTER may have closed, but it’s legacy will live on. ⁠ ⁠ This world-first art installation is a blueprint for change, inspiring how we think about the reuse of⁠ disused structures & how we can harness weather to create design-led renewables.
