History&Artfacts

Timetable

I sort out a timeline which covered main stories that happened in the Smithfield market, it is a place packed with history there has been a livestock market on the site for over 800 years, but before that, this market had lots of dark history and be rebuilt several times due to the security reason. This map helped us gain a better understanding of the Smithfield, how it goes through time.

AEIOU& Artefact

Also, Tanvi collected the artefacts around the Smithfield, and 'AEIOU' of that area, those made us more believe the area is full of historical, and opportunities.

Case Studies

Besides, we did another case studies about four distinct categories of how to create an immersive experience.

  • Visual: use graphic identify to glue the whole project together.

  • AR&VR: it could be one of the trending way today to create an immersive experience.

  • Installation: using interactive installation to trigger people's willing, so they can manage to explore by themselves.

  • Activities: like the team-built game, through this method, let people get to know each other better and sooner.

In the second week of this project, we started to get a specific point which can move us to the next stage for we already done some general researches about the Smithfield. About the next step, we are about to figure out what can we create based on this area and methods.
