Connecting Bridge between the C1 and C2 Buildings, Vrchlabí

A designed foot bridge is suggested to connect the administration building C1 with a hall for manufacturing of gearboxes  M2 at the Škoda Auto plant in Vrchlabí.

A basic foot bridge is acquired by connection of two staircases and arches   – way vaulting  without  any other support. The foot bridge reacts to the surrounding by shifting the arches towards each other. Due to that, the views of the foot bridge arches do not substantially cut surrounding buildings  from any side, and the way passes in the middle of the  arches. By shifting the arches, an interesting effect is acquired when the lower bridge sections are turned to one side and then to the other one.
