Reflect
A reflection of the old bridge and a invitation to reflect
1/6

Solution

The idea was to make a metal silhouette crossing that goes above and below the water. The first part of the crossing is an arch and the second one is an underwater glass container. Due to the glazed floor the metal structure remains visible. The new structure goes above and below the existing pillars. The remains of the two bridges are combined and marked by a glass printed wall that surrounds one pillar. The glass wall is a commemorative plaque displaying information about the old bridges.

The parts of the old bridge are visible in the two parts of the crossing due to the glazing envelop: - an arch silhouette - that can be made of old parts of the bridge - an underwater transparent container - that can hold big parts of the old bridge
