Form & Function

Conceptual Statement:

The architectural concepts form and function are often viewed as simple designs and as polar opposites as black and white. However, when those ideas come together in the shades of grey they create something new and revolutionary that pushes the boundaries of architecture and how the public views it. We were design a simple bridge that was to transform in to something new using a combination of existing bridge form blended with the functions required to have a 30 foot by 40 foot object pass through the span.
