A free hand architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen and coloured markers related to the analysis of the project site plan in scale of 1:500. It illustrates the main roads surrounding the site: North Methven Street (from the east), Atholl Street (from the north), Ring Road (from the west), and Old High Street (from the south), showing pedestrian flow and cars traffic. It also identifies:
- the noise from busy Ring Road,
- the prevailing wind from south-west,
- the directions of vista from Old High St. and Ring Rd,
- the main view access to the site.
The site analysis shows the landscape included in the site (river bank), and the existing buildings (H.V. sub station, City mills car park for 35 cars, free public car park 295 cars). And finally, the North sign shows the sun movement in winter and summer times.
