    Popped in last night after work. Three of the four looked pretty impressive to me. Some clever use of lights, and in the Myerscough proposal some quite cool use of tiles. Definitely worth a look.<br><br>They also have a scale-model of how Finsbury Park will look in a few years (the same one that they had at the Finsbury Park Accord exhibition) so people can see it and rejoice/be reassured/despair depending on their temperament and prejudices.<br>

    <font face="Arial, Verdana" size="2">I'd vote for a combination of 2 proposals.</font><div><font face="Arial, Verdana" size="2">Moragh </font><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font face="lucida grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, tahoma, sans-serif" size="2"><span style="line-height: 20px;">Myerscough for daytime. tiles for aesthetics and potential for community participation and for the daytime. I may have mis-read her proposal, but couldn't see anything about lights!?</span></font></span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font face="lucida grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, tahoma, sans-serif" size="2"><span style="line-height: 20px;">Peter Freeman's for night-time and dark days. </span></font></span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font face="lucida grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, tahoma, sans-serif" size="2"><span style="line-height: 20px;">Love imitation train lights and the idea of changing colours to reflect the seasons.

    Yes Morag's was the most interesting, but isn't that because she seems to have ignored the brief (lighting) and focused on the walls? Made me think that it's a bit tough for the designers to come up with a proposition without being part of a wider plan. Personally I think they should get rid of the cycle path, the wider pavement would be a bit more friendly and make it more possible for a lighting scheme to relieve the gloom. Nice to see the model. That City North tower is going to be tall!
