I then though adding a touch of colour (on the end image) would help differentiate the buildings as there are many subtle hints of colour, for example with Leeds Uni there's the vibrant yellow lines painted on the steps which would really stand out featured on one of the sides of that template, so to keep fluidity of design I'm going to have one feature side in colour on each template.

Leeds Uni
I particularly love the vibrant yellow featured in this design and feel these steps are recognisable, adding in a personal touch to many students as trecking up and down these are the bane of many of their lives I'm sure, as they were last year for me as although they provided a shortcut from my halls to uni, they were very painful especially first thing in the morning if you'd been out the night before..
The Pinnicale
I changed the initial design as it seemed inconsistent to include the name of the building with the use of the sign as it ruined the ambiguity of the close ups and chosen Brutalist characteristics of each building, the inclusion also of the tree top uses too much colour as I only wanted one predominant subtle addition of colour with each building. It was also wrong I felt to include a natural 'beautiful' piece of imagery as it distracts from the context of the harsh architectural design.
