Aspects of the project

Methods and Ways
- Communication: verbal, non-verbal, formal and informal: different types
- Public voice as advertising - TMobile train station adverts taken by storm creating a 'buzz'
- Permanent/Moving design e.g. the 'chalk van' (a moving van in which users can draw what they like on it)
- 'Creative research'

Client and Site
newstreetsquare.tumblr.com
- Other people from outside
- New street square monitored by City of London not Land Securities
- Could be a temporary / seasonal design
- New street square pretty much shut down at weekends
- Clientele; mainly people who work in the square
- 25 year contract; restrictions on time
- Surrounding area; MPs, Law firms, all professional level

Users
- Lunchtime business; mainly only workers go into the shops and restaurants during their lunch 1-2pm busiest
- Ashes and Wimbledon were shown at the square attracting 'outsiders', not the World Cup as they didn't want to attract the 'wrong' crowd
- Very few people go to the shops during the evening

Modelling and Environment
- Shadows / lighting / seasons
- Digimaps
- Floor plans
- Consider number of people possible for a performance
