On Site observation is one of the most effective research method tools to personally analyse the chosen site and elements surrounding it. They are very crucial as it enables anybody to understand the current phenomena, any influential variables or other basic interrelations. Different observation helps in providing both expected and unexpected situations. Since I have already chosen a site for my project I can easily visit and observe at different times of the day during different months (weather conditions). If it is possible to acquire a plan of the area it would be beneficial to pin point specific problem areas. Since I pass by the square quite often, I took the opportunity too take a few pictures of some of the light installations along the road at night. Light trespass is clearly evident in some areas while at the same time other areas are under lit creating an unpleasant atmosphere. Another important thing to mention is that many people prefer to pass from the pavement found on the left hand side of the square rather than the right. I believe the current lighting does not encourage the public to make use of the entire space however a more detailed study should take place. These points were taken while just passing by the area so there would be a more detailed analysis when the proper observation takes place.
