A visual urbanization of Mount Sceberras under Ottoman rule

Abstract

This study aims to substitute the period of the Knights of St. John with an Ottoman rule through a hypothetical scenario. This is communicated through an audio-visual representation of the imaginary development which would have evolved during the period between 1565 and 1798. The main theme revolves around the kind of settlement Mount Sceberras would turn out to be under the new rulers. Through research into Ottoman architecture, and interviews with local academics, the findings of this research are portrayed through a fusion between architectural elements using tools such as 3D modelling and computer animation.
