Turning Heads in Gdansk

In June 2015 the city office of Gdansk, a historic port city in northern Poland announced an invited design competition involving an opening bridge across the Motława River in Gdansk. In April 2016 London based STUDIO BEDNARSKI Ltd as architects working with SCHLAICH BERGERMANN PARTNER as bridge engineers, won this competition, to which seven design teams were admitted. Our main design objective was to create a functional work of art, which becomes a water based sculpture when the bridge deck is opened for navigation and united with the island, which protects the deck from ship impact.
