The book ‘Link it!Masterpieces of Bridge Design’ features projects that combine sophisticated engineering skills with demanding esthetic concepts.
Their function as a link between two or more places over otherwise impassable obstacles distinguishes bridges from all other types of structures or buildings. In the history of mankind, they have evolved with a great variety of profiles and construction menthods. Today, new technologies allow the implementation of projects with previously unattainable shapes and sizes.
‘Link it! Masterpieces of Bridge Design’ includes the work of established specialists as well as designs that were created by architects who usually focus on other sectors. All bridges share one characteristic – their outstanding qualities turn them into symbols of a city or an entire region.
