Transparent Park Bridges in Brandenburg, Germany by Bulant & Wailzer (designed with Rhino and AutoCAD)

Article source: Bulant & Wailzer

In the dreamed and romantic palace park, designed by the famous classicistic landscape architect Peter Joseph Lenné, the appearance of the eight small bridges with different lengths, from 2 to 10 meter, should be very discreet and in harmony with the historical environment. Nevertheless we choose glass as building material as indication for our time and a modern building technology. During the day the transparent glass bridges are disappearing in the environment through their mirroring and reflecting. In the night they become visible through the magic light that they radiate from bellow.

CONSTRUCTION:

The “glass-only-construction” is designed with glass beams and glass plates, both from laminated security prestressed glass (VSG /TVG). The glass elements should be assembled in the workshop. They should be glued with each other with transparent silicon and prepared to be installed on the building place with mobile crane and to be fitted to the concrete blocks made on the building site on the ends of the bridges
