dc.description.abstract | The dissertation focused on the correlation between the terrestrial and naval architectural disciplines. The objective of the work was to compare and find mutual relationships between these two fields of architecture. The research has shown a clear correlation, principally at times when one discipline could benefit from a clear relationship with the other. In the past knowledge from the terrestrial scene of architecture was generally kept away from naval architecture, resulting in a set back to the professionalization of the naval architect. Terrestrial architects have admired the naval scene of architecture during a time when ships became the status symbol of a nation, but no terrestrial architect ever ventured into the direct conception of vessels before the 19th century. A century later saw a significant number or naval architecture designed by terrestrial professionals. The final analysis of the dissertation resulted in a direct study, by the author, on the yacht, Ocean Sapphire Designed by the world renowned architect Lord Norman Foster, and constructed in Italy, it was the direct physical morphosis of the correlation discussed in the dissertation. Ocean Sapphire is promptly linked to the terrestrial scene through its creator and architect. Aspects of the architectural work have shown certain undeniable advantage of the cross-disciplinary exercise, while others have shown the differences in priorities of the naval and terrestrial architects. | en_GB |
