Dodder Bridge, Ireland

+ Show

A post-tensioned stone construction enables an asymmetric arch to span the river linking a new development hub with a historic commercial centre. The profile of the stone section provides a super thin stone bridge that appears to be defying gravity. At night, discrete lighting within stainless steel handrails and in slots between the stone blocks accentuates the construction, providing a local landmark.

Shortlisted: Dodder Bridge competition.
