Byker Hackers- Day 3


Following yesterday’s organisation of categories, the group had a fast-paced sketching session to come up with feasible and challenging solutions to the issues identified on Tuesday. Simultaneously, another group identified the area within Byker to focus the design solutions on and went about labelling areas on maps in which the issues had been identified.

The team then talked through all the ideas to discuss whether they were feasible and realistic, whether they solved the initial issue and where about on the site the idea would be implemented. The main issue that arose with most of the solutions created were that they were not drawn with any context in mind or scale, and so it may be difficult for someone who has not been involved with the group to understand the design idea fully.
