The honeycomb Tube
Every Tube and Elizabeth line station as one cell of a honeycomb, near where it really is, with the lines running through. Over eighty layers colour it: when people travel, how deep the platforms are, the nearest Greggs and whether Waitrose or Lidl is closer, who lives nearby, what homes cost, and more.
