THE FIRST STAGE OF MY INDEPENDENT PRACTICE IS LOOKING AT THE CHICAGO L TRAIN METRO MAP, I FOUND THIS MAP TO BE VERY CONFUSING TO UNDERSTAND ESPECIALLY THE UNION LOOP PART, WHERE 7 LINES CIRCLE THE SAME AREA OF THE CITY IN CENTRAL CHICAGO, FROM AN OUTSIDER VIEW LOOKING IN I FOUND THE DOWNTOWN DESIGN TO BE VERY CONFUSING AND COMPLEX, MY PLAN WAS TO REDESIGN IT TO SIMPLIDY IT BUT STILL KEEP THE ICONIC STYLE ABOUT IT, AF-TER CREATING THE LOOP (ABOVE) I DECIDED TO TAKE ON THE WHOLE MAP AND GIVE IT A NEW STYLE TO SHOW EVERYTHING IN A WAY THAT SHOWS ALL OF THE STATIONS EASIER IN MORE OF A PIN POINT STYLE MAP, VERY EASY TO USE.

EVALUATIONI am very excited with my independent practice work as it is me having the chance to experiment and explore one subject that I seriously love, in this portfolio I only managed to create one full body of work over one map, I wanted to be able to do some more, explore another cities map, but I feel that this will be a project I will carry on over the next term and maybe over to the next year; even with the Chicago one I still feel that there is so much more I can do with it and I plan to look at it further. In my proposal I also said that I wanted to finish a project I started in the 1st year which was my personal design of the London Underground map, I was not able to do so over this term due to time management but that project is not one that I am going to give up on.
