EXP 3 - The Image Captures and Architecture
THE BRIDGE
The concept of this bridge was inspired by the wispy and feminine figure of Mirander Kerr. The two support columns that uphold the bridge with the suspensions are inspired by the upright, challenging and powerful Angela Merkel.

The dining meeting area was strategically placed under the bridge to further hold the support columns of the bridge together. As this was an important space too, I wanted to make it look like a diamond floating above water.

I was sent to a state school for the blind, but I flunked first grade because Braille just didn't make any sense to me. Words were a weird concept. . Now 55, Merkel, Germany's first Chancellor raised in the communist East, is the head of a democratic form of government and the guardian of individual freedoms that she was denied until her 30s.
