IN CONTEXT Where would the maps be? The corrisponding map would be placed in each block enterance, in plain view. Other places could be on fridge doors of the residents, screensavers. The maps would be to act as a gentle reminder as to where they were, as well as how far they were away from the gardens for example. SARAH MOL YNEUX

This mapping system gives a simple solution to difgiculties that some of these people experiance when leaving their properites. It breaks the journey down giving a quick explanation and what of difgiculties it could be.
