A CREATIVE THINK-TANK FOR ARCHITECTURE AND BEYOND

Legacy


Urban Planning + Architecture + Landscape Design


The project aims to provide the city of Yongxin with an upgraded urban strategy, with the main attraction being the new Bridge-Complex. Legacy is a spatial pincer that interlocks together the most important natural elements of Yongxin (both its water banks) and its city center, acting as a renewed critical link between the mountains, city, and the river that was once provided by the Wenxing Floating Bridge. The southbank represents the transition between rurality and the built environment: it’s a green cushion where a system of ponds, trees, and smooth terrain movements provides both protection from potential floods and a pleasing new biodiversity landscape that gives a whole other ecological image to this side of the city. The bridge is the true protagonist of the project. Its design has been oriented towards a twisting, strong, and contemporary shape that inherits its lines from the careful reinterpretation of traditional Chinese architectural archetypes.
