'City of Plymouth—Zoning Proposals'
An ingenious transparent overlay printed with red contour lines lies over this colourful zoning map of Plymouth, so that the planners' land uses can be read against the hills and valleys beneath them. The map itself, from A Plan for Plymouth, divides the city into land for development, rural zone, public and private open space, allotments, government land and industry, and marks new and redundant school sites, neighbourhood centres, children's playgrounds, new roads and bridges and a grouped hospitals site, together with permitted population densities of 25 to 100 people per acre. The overlay folds back to reveal the map unobstructed. An unusual and engaging piece of planning presentation, illustrated both with the overlay opened and in place.
