Specifics:

- What am i looking at in term of photography and illustration?

The styles an visual implications of these forms can help in segregating and restructuring the 'liminal' and 'concrete' experiences of space.

- Which place/space? :

The place still remains to be Hospital road. since in terms of contrast and content it provides interesting elements to consider. The idea or the hope is to create some sort of feeling of generality or placeless-ness as the detailing becomes more intense. to somehow reflect larger ideas through the depiction of this one place.

- Form of the book ? :

A layered navigation through a space/place. -The order and details of the layers is still to come
