Gessnerbrücke, Zurich

This bridge, located in Sihlraum, was realised with a lighting approach using only few elements to bring the shape of the bridge in the foreground, offering no chance for vandalism and also respecting the very limited financial budget. To support the architectural idea, the actual lighting concept only comes into play underneath the bridge deck area and creates an interesting view during night time.
