A good example of how urban landscape can be a real delight for the eyes.
Designed by the Beca architects and completed in 2008, this footbridge located in Onepoto Basin, north of Auckland, is dedicated to pedestrian and bikers. The bridge is not far from a highway: idea was to make of this bridge a pleasant and protected pathway for inhabitants and attract people to use it as it's part of the global bike network of the city.
With a shape of a breaking wave and use of natural material, this bridge seems to be completely integrated to the surrounding nature. Beautiful public architecture!
