Suspended Skylines From Criss Crossed to Zig Zag
Corinne Guirgis — August 24, 2011 — Eco
London Bridge may be falling down, but these 45 incredible mind-blowing bridges are alive and well. Aside from their obvious practical function, bridges are often exquisite artistic displays that add character to a city and attract myriads of tourists for the majestic views they offer. Connecting landscapes divided by bodies of water both large and small, these superb structural masterpieces are only getting grander and more physically astounding as advanced construction technology continues to take unconventional designs into the realm of possibility.
While ancient bridges across the world are celebrated as historic monuments, modern bridges are celebrated as architectural wonders of the world that will go down in history for their innovative design concept and longstanding structure.
Implications - Modern architecture is becoming increasingly unique as technology expands the possibilities for design. The construction of unconventional and innovative structures attracts tourists to destinations that may not have been popular without them, and serve as a mark of mankind's progression.
