Preparing To Build Titanic - H&W Drawing Office, 1912

Harland & Wolff Drawing Office

Harland & Wolff drawing office, 1912
In this photograph naval architects and draughtsmen are working on ship designs.  This is where plans of Olympic and Titanic were prepared.  The high barrel ceiling and large number of windows made maximum use of natural light.  This drawing office and an adjacent drawing office have survived to the present day and will be preserved at Queen’s Island, now incorporating Titanic Quarter.
