Form & Function

          Inspiration for design can be found all around us. The purpose of this project was to explore different mechanical processes and combine them with existing architecture to come up with trans-formative design ideas. This proposal is for a mechanical bridge that provides a 30ftx40ft opening for ship to go under.
