Plaswyck Park is a popular park and zoo in a suburb of Rotterdam. The
clients wanted to move the main public entrance to the opposite side of
the park and to have new offices, a restaurant and a shop near the new
entrance. They also asked us to look at new proposals for accessing the
site by car, coach and foot.
We proposed a pedestrian bridge which would solve safety problems and
act as a bold advertisement for the park. The main intention was to make
a series of fun spaces and structures with a variety of materials to constantly
stimulate the children visiting the park.
The materials are a simple contrast of old and new: a free-flowing thatched
roof wrapping over glass and steel frame cubes.
