Enter the Titanic

Reconstructing the ship from the evidence that survives.

Plans. Photographs. Documents. Period records. Every source is examined before it becomes part of the digital ship.

SCROLL TO ENTER

History first.
The ship follows.

Enter the Titanic is an independent research and reconstruction project with one guiding principle: do not invent what the evidence can tell us.

The public archive is the foundation. Plans, photographs, publications, technical material and provenance are organised before they inform the evolving 3D reconstruction.

THE EVIDENCE

Built from what remains.

No single surviving source tells the whole story. The reconstruction is assembled by comparing different kinds of evidence and recording where certainty ends.

01

Plans

Deck arrangements, structural drawings, machinery plans and technical diagrams.

02

Photographs

Titanic, Olympic, shipyard and period photographs used with their historical context intact.

03

Documents

Contemporary publications, inquiries, specifications and surviving written records.

04

Provenance

Source, rights, confidence and conflicts are recorded so the reconstruction stays traceable.

Three stages.
One ship.

The project grows in layers. Research comes first, reconstruction follows, and the long-term goal is an explorable historical experience.

SOURCE TO SHIP

Evidence before detail.

Every reconstructed decision should be explainable by the research behind it — including uncertainty and disagreement between sources.

  1. 01
    COLLECT

    Find plans, photographs, publications and archival records.

  2. 02
    VERIFY
