When working with projects in an outdoor setting, it is very important to ensure all plant and animal life is protected and cared for. Our team was tasked with fabricating a bridge that would help park-goers cross over a stream that runs through John Fairey Garden. The result was an intricately designed and fabricated bridge, created in our shop then transported by crane to the park and carefully installed.
The bridge features a visually stunning array of Ipe wood, stainless steel mesh railing and support beams curving and slanting in many directions to give an abstract design. Despite the large scale of the bridge, all exotic plant life, which had been imported from all over the world by the Garden, was carefully preserved due to the great care of our Installation team.
The end result is a wonderful display of how nature and modern architecture can work together in stunning harmony.
