These newly digitalised illustrations were then appropriately scaled and overlayed onto the original image which they came from. Pieces of both the images and illustrations were then cut and manipulated to produce a half-and-half effect that can be seen as showing the development of these architectural structures. Cutting the images in different places, sizes and angles were also experimented with in this process.
Based on these, other variations were produced where the illustration and images weren't cut so straight. In these variations, the illustrations were allowed to be overlapped onto the original photographic image in order to create a less polished finished, and a more "rustic" appearance, which pioneer of the Arts and Crafts movement, William Morris, favoured.
Another variation experimented with overlaying the entire illustration over the entire photographic image, however if used in the book, this approach would take away some attention to the detail of the buildings and their architectural beauty and history in that its Arts and Crafts features would be hidden by the lines.
