This project presented an opportunity to collaborate with BBO on the design for the new bridge over the Waikato River to the new Peacocke's development. A focal point of the design will be on the user experience with a particular focus on pedestrians and cyclists. The bridge is not only thought of as a means to traversing the river but as a vantage point with places to pause and admire the beauty of the riparian landscape. The sculptural form makes a subtle reference to the traditional Maori kete bag used for the transport of locally grown produce once traded along the river. Acknowledging the weaving of cultures; both the historic coming together on the beach for trade, and the current cultural diversity that is enjoyed in Kirikiriroa.
