A walkway across a lake in a city park, lifting people up over the water instead of steering them around it.
The studio brief was simply to connect two sides of a lake. Rather than skim the surface, I raised the pedestrians above it, so that crossing becomes something you notice rather than something you get through.
The viewing points along the span are framed in coloured glass, to be made by local artisans — the bridge as a place for a town’s own craft to be seen, rather than an object dropped into the park from outside.
