For this task, i used the internet where i researched google images for new and old buildings in Bradford which i then created a mood board for each.
Old
New
Looking at my mood boards , i can see that there is a lot of differences rather than similarities between the buildings which have changed over the years in a number of ways. Firstly looking at the old buildings,for example Bradford Town Hall was built out of stone as were most of the buildings built in those days. The older buildings all look similar because of what they were built with and also the colour of them is also similar. Also the buildings have features which are very complex which probably wouldn't be able to be re created today and hasn't been. A lot of older buildings sometimes have traditional things on the, for example i notice that a lot have clocks on them which are normally on a tower or on a tower on top of the building. Lastly, the structure of them is different as there is a lot of columns and archways built into them and seem to be made out of a stronger material than the materials used today.
Looking at buildings which are new are very different to old buildings. Firstly, buildings today have a lot more colour used on them which are bright and appealing. The structure of the buildings have changed dramatically as today they are built in strange ways with weird shapes and features on them. For example there are multicoloured windows and windows which are different sizes. Also i think that when a building is built today, it doesn't take as long as it would to build an old building as there arent complex features on them and a lot of them have more glass used on them than brick/stone which would take a lot longer. Lastly , some of the newer buildings look futuristic because of their shape, and different colour bricks are used to create them to give them a different look.
