I think I've given myself the hardest challenge ever.
I went to the building management, there wasn't much information about this property, and called the local council and land registration they wouldn't be able to provide the ownership details that means I won't be able to get in to the building so, that stopped my further development of this project.

The background
Yesterday I went down to the local council the building management to find out the history of the building that i've been working on. there ain't much information as i expected as the building's been left up for quite a long time.. so over the last two decades from the 1990. Demolition of the buildings and redevelopment for offices, small units for uses within Class B1, housing, retail shop etc..( highlighted on the copy of the original doc ) as below.
Apparently, that's all i can find for this, but I am gonna call the council and land registry next Monday, hopefully i can reach to the owner and get assessed to the building and find out more about it.
I attach a link of a webpage called derelict london, which is an unusual photographic portrait (of approx 3000 pics by Paul Talling) of the nations capital. its really interesting to see and related to my building project.

Tate Modern & British Art Show 7
"Out of Place" exhibition.
The four artists in out of place explore the relationship between dominant political forces and personal and collective histories by looking at urban space, architectural structures and the condition of displacement.

As I'm thinking putting this project at the final degree show, some of artists' work and display I really liked and inspired me making thoughts about my space design.

Local Council
How to push the project more further?
As the building's all locked up, so I couldn't get side which is a shame. I called the local council to find out the history that what's been used for over the last decade, but for more details and paper documents I will have to go down to their office. Because if I could get more info about this building, then I can do more than just what we can see from the outside.
Also, it would be great if I could reach the owner then i might be able to get in to the building, for that i will have to contact the land registry.

Posters
For the structure of the posters I was very much inspired by my favourite architect Zaha Hadid's work. They're simple but very structural and shaped. Her design has also been used in other field (e.g Fashion and Product).
For the final outcome. I've made a series of posters, each of them represents a different angle of view of the building.
It's in a great location, that should let people to see that;
For where it is, it's got so much potential for turning it into anything for reuse;
The structure of the building is rather interesting, it's got this triangle-y frame, with two floors and a backyard.
As I've been told the numbers are the most obvious thing on poster so here's the new outcome.

Today, I walked around in Shoreditch, as was expecting to find something exciting and has a spark in it for my project.
Most of buildings in the area are lofts and warehouses which i liked and i think they've got more features and characters than Barbican. That I agreed with Val. yes.
There's an abandoned block on commercial street which it caught my eyes.
It's weird that even a friend of mine just lives around the corner of the street, and we hang out a lot in this area but i've never really stopped and had a proper look of this building.. yea, that's because it seems has been left up for a long time, it looks old and dirty, pointless that some people might say. so, how many abandoned buildings in london, do we all think them very negatively? would it be interesting to find out what's the history behind those buildings, and why they've been left up and never being noticed or used again?
