Week 3: Reflection

In research I have learnt a lot regarding building structure and how building materials could decay over time. Materials that seem quite durable and semi-permanent are actually very prone to decay without proper maintenance. I think the Barcelona Pavilion is very susceptible to effects of the weather because of the open plan and while violent damage may not occur excessively, decay and corrosion definitely would.
Concocting a story behind the history of abandonment and destruction is helpful for me because I was unsure what I wanted to do and having a narrative focus appeals to and aids the direction I want to take.
