Whale and Dolphin Observation Center



This is my some of my concept sketches for the second design we have to do. Our portfolio hand in date is the 18th of June. Have a lot of work to do before then. Luckily my work is coming on well so hopefully I will not have many late nights this coming week.

INVENTIVE WOODEN BRIDGE

Found this amazing timber bridge that is located in Amsterdam. Unfortunately the bridge is only at concept stage.  The architect who designed the bridge is Laurent Saint-Val.

The form of this bridge is just amazing and it is not only a pedestrian bridge but also features a restaurant, bike shop and a garden. The bike shop is a means to promote sustainability and to reduce the carbon footprint of the city.

The featured materials includes timber, aluminium and glass. The large windows allow natural light to penetrate the interior, while also creating an unobstructed view of the outside.
