Šegvić’s Mediterranean; Student travel book

Marina Šimunić Buršić

Abstract

Šegvić’s Mediterranean is the title of a newly-published student travel book with 100 illustrations. The book was compiled and written by several enthusiastic Master program students of architecture, primarily Jana Horvat as the chief editor and graphic designer Dora Kasun. Besides students, editorial board members were also field class instructors for Dalmatia who teach the course Architecture in Croatian Regions. They wrote short reviews in honour of professor Neven Šegvić’s architectural work and teaching. The book mainly contains students’ contributions: a series of selected and attractively presented impressions in the form of drawings, photographs and texts. Quick sketches are the first ”intuitive” analysis of prof. Šegvić’s architecture while the selected photographs provide valuable documents. The text as the third medium of this book, appears in the form of hand-written notes ranging from serious and documentary ones to those reflecting personal impressions, dilemmas and questions. With its collection of 100 graphic contributions, this book is not only a reliable indicator of the young generation’s attitude towards architecture but also a valuable resource for future researches into Croatian architecture.
