Dubai Creek Harbour Central Footbridge (Under Construction 2022)

Dubai UAE 2019-2023

The depth of the footbride is set by the difference in height between bank and embankment, forming an intricate circulation hub between city and water. Its landing offers a generous public space intertwined with Spanish Steps on both sides of the crossing.

Structural Expression

The lower arch and upper deck are structural diagrids patterned after the rhomboidal (diamond-shaped) fields of traditional Maghreb Moucharabiehs.

Lightness

The dispersal of forces into a web provides the lightest possible structure.
