Sight Unseen
New Ways of Seeing Climatic Data
The project explores how design might bridge the gap between technology and nature to reimagine climate change communication in Singapore. By integrating data humanism, multisensory design, synesthetic approaches, and posthumanist perspectives, it addresses the challenges of conveying the urgency of climate change in urban contexts. The research examines frameworks for visualising climate issues, engaging audiences emotionally and cognitively, fostering actionable responses. Through an interdisciplinary lens that combines ecological insights, semiotic studies, and technological innovation, this study also developed a design toolkit to inspire empathy, critical thinking, and hands-on solutions for environmental change adaptation and mitigation.
