tube map exploration

Having a love for all things tube map, I decided to do a bit of exploration, below are some initial experiements.

Tubes into a bottle:

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.
