Switzerland based studio Geninasca Delefortrie Architectes have designed a utilitarian Footbridge Crossing L’Areuse completed in early 2000s.
Footbridge Crossing L’Areuse by Geninasca Delefortrie Architectes:
When a place speaks, the most constructive reaction is to listen to it rather than to converse with it. The crossing of the Areuse at a precise point of the gauge was the demand.
The answer is this footbridge, an organic structure, ensuring a better echo with the site and the river. The objective power of this artefact holds in its ability the power to blend in perfectly with the site and get clearly noticed. There is no submission to the place but just respect.
