Further visualisations of the Facade Temperature study.
Using the carcasses made with data a uniform surface is created alongside the site characterising the temperature changes
Data Visualisation Study.
I have taken temperature measurements of the facades (with an infrared pointer thermometer) of the buildings around the New Union Square. Most of the building facades are significantly cooler then air temperature at the time. With the exception of the 2 back facades facing south. The wall opposite the opening between Capital buildings allowed the wall opposite it to be uniformly heated.
Temperatures are represented by the circles (radius of the circle = value of temperature x 0.1 represented in meters) places at the corresponding height of the measurement spot. The overall shape is created when circles of facade temperature values are alternated with circles of air temperature at the location at the time and joined together.
This study highlights an unnoticeable aspect of the environment within the square - something not seen by the eye and unnoticed by people within the space. Much like the unseen digital data streams.
The simulation models the ISO shape as a hollow form. If looked from beneath - it takes on an architectural space qualities akin to cathedral passage ways
This simulation visualises wind speed data as an ISO surface on site - creating a juxtaposition of the rigid site buildings with the amorphous malleable forms

New Union Square,
The Site of choice for this project is located right in the middle of the ongoing masterplan. The new Union square is enclosed by fully completed buildings on SW and NE. Located int eh middle of the Nine Elms area and being a finished part of it - the Site gives a good estimate to the look and feel of the area when the whole of the renovation works are complete. Such properties give good grounds to for a project proposal in the actual context rather than the future estimated context.
"Very little public money has gone into this development, which is transforming a belt of light industrial land. Levies on private developers are paying for the infrastructure necessary to support the change from industrial to residential and commercial — new schools, drainage systems, a park and green spaces, refurbishment of New Covent Garden Market, new health facilities — and that money's coming from property sales.So what we're ending up with at Nine Elms is a variety of schemes. One's funding a block for frail elderly people. One development's paying for new social housing, charged at around 40-45% of borough-wide market rents. Developer Bellway, on the old Christie's warehouse site, is providing 76 affordable homes but also 114 homes specifically set aside for the private rental sector — a 'build to rent' scheme where the properties are managed by decent, large scale landlords, and something we like. So long as central government isn't funding genuinely affordable housebuilding on a massive scale we'll have to rely on this hotch-potch approach of cobbling together money from private development and — when you consider what else has been funded by the levies — Nine Elms has done the best it can."

Claim:
The current development is essentially paying for many council needs.
Possible outcomes:
The council and existing residents have no or little power over the transformation in the neighbourhood by the private developers.
A gated community is created on the riverside. The Patmore Estate and it’s residents, previously physically separated from the riverfront by the railroad system would now be separated by socio-econimical factors.

This first study project is focusing on the area of Nine elms which is currently undergoing a radical redevelopment from it’s industrial past into the mixed use contemporary future.
The area has been publicly called "the last and greatest single prospect for regeneration in central London" and indeed being situated across the river from the Palace of Westminster it has been inappropriately neglected.
Such a radical transformation in the area is possible with the extension of the Northern line services to include 2 new stations at Nine Elms and Battersea.
Volterra’s economic benefits study (2011) concluded that the new Tube link would:
- expand the Central London Activity Zone – one of the most productive commercial districts in the world. - generate up to £7.9bn in wider economic benefits and up to £4.5 billion in additional tax revenue for the Exchequer. - repay the money spent delivering the NLE between three and nine times over through increased economic outputs and increased foreign investment in the UK . - more than treble the number new of jobs created in the area – up to 25,000 - provide capacity for the thousands of new homes in the area
