Block Model Test

Conclusion. With the limitations of SketchUp, the 'organic' look I was after was achieved. With abit of research, the program 3ds Max seemed to be the best option in order to model the organic elements with needed.

Experimentation of the 'organic' structure. With a concept of 'power', the bridge needed a powerful presence in its landscape, while also being one with its surrounds. The idea of an 'organic' structure would give the appearance of something growing within the valley.


This was the initial draft concept model. Mainly used to test the overall scale and position. Seen here is the 'organic' central structure (lift shaft), rising up and over, back into side of the valley. This also forms two office spaces at either end within the bridge.
