The walk to each hotel: new left, old right
A Practical example .
I was at Wembley Park a few weeks ago for a system demo and I needed to stop over. The Premier inn was really cheap and there are two close enough to the stadium to stay in. I asked myslef: Do I stop at a really modern Premier Inn at the back of the stadium? Or Do I stop at the slightly tired Premier Inn right next to Wembley Park tube?
Guess which one I chose and why…… the tired Premier Inn by the tube.
Afterwards I had a conversation with a colleague at work (who knew both venues well), and at first he was surprised at why I’d made the choice I had.. but when I explained it he understood, and I think that’s actually one point I really wanted to get across. How often do we put ourselves in the spaces that we’re lighting? And do we consider how people not like us would feel / behave in those spaces. Eg our parents, our children, wife, husband etc And why are we lighting the space? Not one size fits all, but we need to consider everything in the round.
