Majorca Excursion - Photography,







Majorca Excursion.

These on-site sketches were completed on a study trip to Palma Majorca in October. Buildings studied and subsquently recorded through sketching and photography on this excursion included the Miro Foundation, MOMA Palma and Museo des Molinos. The emphasis focused on intregating the practical methodologies that pertain to the final built condition. Response to context, programme, narrative, accomodation, materiality, economy and are, to name but a few, factors that influence and inform how architects articulate an objective response to a need to build.

The image below illustrates the extents of the site during the final years of its ability to manufacture and before the construction of the M27, which cut through the site separating it into distinct north and south halves.

The areas highlighted brown have subsequently been removed, whilst those in blue are still largely in existence currently. (Image by DH2010)

This site plan illustrates Bursledon Brickworks within its immediate context. The works and its site will constitute the basis on which I can practically explore the theories and ideas explored through theoretical research.
