Semester 2, Assignment 3; Design Safari

For our third assignment, we had to go out as a group and study our fellow human beings in an environment such as a coffee shop, shopping centre, bus/train station etc. Here are our findings, copied exactly as I wrote them down.

4th March, 11.05 am, opposite Thomsons, top floor of the Overgate.

20 year old guy, wearing a suit, possibly getting interviewed. 25 - 26 year old female, grey jacket. Interviewing/ survey for Evening Telegraph. If you won the lottery would you spend it all at once? Took names and photographs. Use top floor as thoroughfare - few passers by actually go into the surrounding shops. High ration of singular elderly men. Lots of couples either husband and wife, boyfriend and girlfiend, mother and daughter etc. Odd workman. 2 policemen carrying paper cups in a Morrison's bag. UPS guy carrying an Orange bag. Chinese mother and son waiting for something/one? Sat behind us. Many a buggy/push chair. Mixtures of races but predominantly white. Man - Rupert. 10 x 10 -13 year old boys with tennis rackets. Black lab guide dog in training. Couple both drinking Irn Bru and eating Greggs. 2 men unsuccessfully flogging makeup in black bags outside WHSmith. One woman wearing an UGG boot and a trainer.

Debenhams bag count: 25
