Project Background
The project is located on both sides of Lange Bruges, Belgium.
Linking style: blending local elements
The total length of the Phantom Floating Bridge is 120 meters, and the overall design is based on the concept of “Phantom Geometry”. The unique geometric shape caters to Belgian modernist design. The dazzling materials sparkle like diamonds (inspired by Zaha’s work at the Port Building in Antwerp, Belgium).
Floating bridge function: pedestrian and vehicular passage
The cross-sectional layout of the standard section of the deck of the Huancai Floating Bridge is 2m (sidewalk)+2m (bicycle lane)=4m, divided into two linear sections: cycling and slow driving.
The space of several entrances (providing multiple experiences), various check-in and leisure situations, and atmosphere are intertwined on the bridge deck.
The Belgian Phantom Floating Bridge is a dynamic integrated floating bridge that integrates transportation, landscape, culture, and leisure. The construction of the floating bridge maintains the continuity of transportation and ecological landscape on both sides of Lange Bruges, forming a harmonious and unified slow traffic system, thereby improving the environmental quality of the region on both sides of Lange Bruges. Its construction meets the needs of local residents for tourism, leisure, and sightseeing.
