FORM  &  FUNCTION

This project was created to explore new possibilities in improving already constructed bridge designs as a moveable bridge in order to allow large boats or other watercraft to pass through. Function can transform prototypes by involving everyday items as simple movement mechanisms to showcase certain components to maneuver through a series of conceptual ideas.
