2012: Transforming the Bridge | 12327

Team: Andre Reis, Hugo Lourenco, Rita Zozimo

Location: Lisbon, Portugal

Overview: What is a bridge? As a constructed thing, who builds two places on the banks chosen to do so, this object becames its function in its crossing.
Which bridge is this? In focus at the lower level, this seems to live simultaneously in the past and a future at present and thus is broken or fragmented as illustrated above. What leads to a state of high entropy, contrary to the idea of the bridge and you want to continue to be, over time.
What is our proposal? We started from the desire to bring this high entropy identified and unify the  bridge, not only between their levels (upper and lower), and among all ages illustrated in the figures of its decomposition. Then came the need to restructure or redefine this without loosing its identity, acknowledged that past or his iconic character before. Thus, there is the end of a distance in time and space and between all the elements, and the end of a boundary between the platforms, along its route to the other side.
To complete this idea we propose a urban park and an interior graden in search of a connection between the environment and all this object built.
