Task : take a ground plan and use it to influence the bridge from top view. Then rotate it 90 degrees to inform the bridge's section as well. Below: Planning and process drawings transforming ground plan into section pan Bubble Diagram showing room layout Below : Earlier sketches and rough ideas, trying to implement ideas of flowing architecture to imply fluid movement I envisioned the main body of the bridge to comprise of a large, curved glass form with contour lines running across the shape to provide visual depth and interest. Below is an image of the Foundation Louis Vuitton by Frank Gehry which also inspir...
