Sheffield Parkway Iconic Bridge

Borrowing from nature, the intricate pattern of the evasive Japanese knotweed found at the site provides opportunities when its growth algorithm is taken as a system and applied on the site to let the bridge grow from two sides of the highway. The branches grow up and across, bifurcate, spread, and connect. The wilderness once separated by the highway is reunited again with the delicate pattern weaved by branches of the bridge.
