🗺️ Design Starts with Context!

Before zoning, massing, or even form-making—understanding the site’s context is key. Here’s a quick breakdown of how to represent it visually 👇

🔍 Slide 1: Macro View – Where is your site situated in the bigger picture?
📍 Slide 2: Local View – Zooming into immediate surroundings
💡 Slide 3: Why it matters – Context maps reveal access, buffers, zoning, and potential!

Want your site analysis to actually guide your concept?
👉 Start with clear, layered diagrams like these.
