A couple of weeks ago I did a post about this bridge contest with 13 of the best designs out of hundreds. Now four teams including Hopkins Architects, Amanda Levete‘s practice AL_A and two separate teams from Ove Arup & Partners have been shortlisted in the competition to design a new bridge in London spanning the Thames from Nine Elms to Westminster. Commenting on the four shortlisted teams, Ravi Govindia said:
“The quality of the submissions went beyond our best expectations and the interest this competition has generated across London has been tremendous… The devil will be in the detail and the next stage will show us whether these four highly skilled and innovative design teams can meet the complex challenges this project presents.”
My favorite (inset above) wasn’t chosen, but after following the process, I’m excited to visit one day and see the finished results.
