Founding director
Shortlisted competition entry for a 60m span pedestrian and cycle bridge across the River Soar in Leicester. The bridge is oval on plan and focuses around a central oculus which embellishes the experience whilst crossing the bridge. The deck is generously wide to act as an extension of the riverscape and the structure emerges above the deck to form seating zones around the oculus. Konrad directed the engineering designs whilst working at Arup.
