JERSEY WATERFRONT BRIDGE COMPETITION



SIAL Team:
    Mark Burry
    Andrew Maher


Professor Mark Burry and Andrew Maher of the Spatial Information Architecture Laboratory are part of the winning team for a new footbridge to provide access to the development of the St Helier waterfront area on the Island of Jersey.

Consulting with Michael Taylor from the architects Michael Hopkins and Partners, SIAL assisted with the definition and realisation of the complex 3-dimensional geometry of the arched bridge.





The work builds upon PHD research (ARC Spirt) conducted by Andrew Maher at SIAL, into the potential for cross-disciplinary design collaboration between architects and engineers using high level parametric design techniques.
