About the project
Designed for the Amsterdam Cycling Bridge competition, the concept of this pedestrian and bicycle bridge of 24 meters high features the image of two white ships passing by, inviting visitors and residents of the capital to harbor. The top tier of the bridge is connected to two floating cone-shaped towers, equipped with glass elevators and radial ramps, leading to both of the shores. At the bottom of the towers, there will be eco-islets. Top levels will comprise cafes and green galleries with a view.
A peculiar thing about the bridge – you can use an elevator, and the way will only be 300 meters, or you can take an extensive walk of 1,200 metres along the ramp.
