Duplicated Bridge / Aristide Antonas

By — Filed under: Infrastructure ,Structures ,Urban Design , ,

Greek architect Aristide Antonas shared his latest project,a that responds to the urban level and the expansions of the city center toward Drava.   Intending to produce a new urban situation, the project is seen as an expanding element of the city.  The proposed sits closely to an existing one – a move Antonas that explains adds another possibility to the developing riversides.  ”We have to imagine a possible constitution of the two sides in order to propose a possible link…We are supposed to think through the perspective of the coming years: how could we create the conditions for an animated area in the place where now lay two more or less neglected riversides?”

More about the project, including more images, after the break.

We have presented before some projects by Greek architect Aristide Antonas. Most of them really speculative and very interesting due the topics of research that Antonas use to study, as recycled materials or waste design.
This time we’re featuring his proposal for a transformation in the Architecture School at Delft, that was devasted by fire in 2008.

Antona’s description of the project after the break.
