601D - Icelandic contemporary Design V – Architecture - The footbridge over Hringbraut

The footbridge over Hringbraut is the result of a design competition held in 2003. The bridge is cast in-situ with curved timber formwork and expansion joints only at the landings. The delicacy of structure and form is reinforced by the lightweight handrail. Studio Grandi Architects designed the bridge in conjunction with Efla Engineers (formerly Línuhönnun).
