Stonehouse Visit Part 2




Now the group have visited Stonehouse, we have been able to come up with many ideas concerning the improvement of Stonehouse, Plymouth, United Kingdom. Meanwhile I have been identifying areas of Stonehouse using maps to establish contrasts between rich and poor areas (residential and council homes), identifying transportation routes and finding areas of businesses and facilities. All of these clash and combine, making Stonehouse as we see it today. I decided to draw the map of Stonehouse to easily pinpoint the exact areas the group visited and took data from. I then started to look at Google Earth and Google Maps (even a local map) to basically track where the group has been and to decide if streets had residential or council flats; or if other streets had more businesses or green spaces etc. Using a colour key was useful in helping identifying each area for others to observe.

(Postcard Logo Idea's will be uploaded in a minute!)
