The Hidden Dimension
No matter what happens in the world of human beings, it happens in a spatial setting, and the design of that setting has a deep and persisting influence on people.

“Streets are one of the crucial city elements that signify the public life of the place. Hence, streetscaping becomes the determining criteria for the success of the city.”
- Aarushi Gupta
Streetscape is a term “that refers to is used to describe the natural and built fabric of the street and defined as the design quality of the street and its visual effect.”
linear street line panorama
multi-viewpoint panorama; a set of photographs taken from different viewpoints along the street front
classic 360° panorama taken from one viewpoint by the photographer as they swivel with the camera from one end to another
Streetscape shows a consistent and complete street elevation presents each building along the street equally prioritizes the orientation of the street and recognizes which side of the street is represented
buildings at either end are not recognizable distorts the image; the nearer the building, the bigger it is the image is flattened out from the full 360° rotation; the north and south ends face the same direction
at least 50% overlap
Take note of landmarks and adjacent streets
As you conduct the documentation, observe common building materials and local flora & fauna; capture close-up images of those relevant elements

Collate the photos (ideally, the default arrangement is sequenced)
Overlay each photo by its order
Crop the photos
Tilt-shift accordingly to avoid distortion
