The new Maribor Footbridge in our design approach serves as an event itself during the year of 2012, showing different facades during European Capital of Culture. It has optional walkways, and separate ways of crossing. Our design concept was to create a bridge that is airy, completely pedestrian-friendly, and elegant. There are separated ways for walking, bicycling, resting, playing, and for different urban activities. It serves as a public space and brings closer citizens to the river Drava.
