Last week I was walking along the pavement and I noticed that there was an interesting pattern in the way the tiles had been placed. Taking a photo I used this image as reference to create some pattern illustrations.

using the tube lines as a guide, I created the patterns. I created patterns using the structure of the tube map, for instance the northern and central lines connect. As do the circle and district and hammersmith and circle.
