__DANUBE RIVER BRIDGE__
Group Project: Eleftherios Kourkopoulos, Niki Matta
In this design studio, the design of a bridge in Budapest, Hungary was proposed, as a way to bridge the two shores of the Danube river. This particular proposal centers around the conceptual approach of the bridge as an active urban space, rather than a mere passage. Hence, the bridge was combined with four cubical structures which housed unique uses. A design goal was the combination of pedestrian and cyclist routes with monolith-like structures, where passing civilians can witness unique urban events. Moreover, the large size of the structures was chosen as a mean of awe provocation to the visitors.
