BRIDGE – ORANGE HEADQUARTERS – EAST AND WEST BRIDGES
At the top of Bridge building, the architect designed two crossings between opposing structural blocks, creating unique and privileged workspaces. They form the main structure of the various levels of roofs and give support to gardens, leisure areas and large glazed skylights. They are independent structural pieces supported by the building structure. This article addresses the solutions used as well as the cantilever construction method that has been implemented given the central and elevated location on site.
