“Bridging” signifies, “connecting different places by drawing bridges”. Once the bridge is drawn over the river, the traffic of people and matter is born. Recently, we also call the connections among different networks bridging.
In short, to bridge means to connect two things that previously had no connection. Bridging is a concept that acts as a passage, crossing over the gaps and breaks, giving new characteristics to each entity.
If architecture can play a role in bridging, what would it be like?
What is architecture able to connect?
Please consider architecture from the perspective of connecting.
We are looking forward to seeing your proposals on “Bridging – Architecture that bridges”.
