Bridge Transformations






Acess to Elevators




Acess to Dining place








To be honest, this experiment took me a lot more time than I expected, but I am pretty happy with my result, it was worth the effort.


When I looked at the concept "power", the first thing i came up with was that the bridges I designed must be huge, they have to give people a feeling of pressure when they standing in front of them. That is why the bridges I have now are so gigantic, they look so majestic when people watch them from below.

My understanding of power has two key points, "automatic" and "in control". "Automatic" indeed gives people feeling of power, image the whole structure collapse and reform right before your eyes, and it was all done by your snap of figures, it makes you feel like the strongest man in the world.



The reason I made the bridges transportable is because I want to give them spirit, make them come to life instead of being dead structures.

EXP 2 - Electroliquid Aggregation

Gustave Eiffel : “vertical stratification”. The Eiffel Tower  is a vertical structure, there are numbers of levels on top of each other, so as visitors can only go up and down as they walking through.
Peter Zumthor :”horizontal stratification”. The Thermal Baths only has a single level, the visitors can only walk in horizontal direction.
Electroliquid Aggregation
“3 dimensional circulation”
In the Eiffel Tower and the Thermal Baths visitors only have access to two dimensions which is vertical/ horizontal. And the new design is a combination of two concepts of these two building. The new concept successfully converts 2 dimensional circulations into 3 dimensions, so the visitors not only can walk left to right but also up and down.
