It is not every day that Paris has a new bridge. This is the 37 th.
Let me introduce to you the bridge Simone de Beauvoir. This bridge looks like a roller coaster on the photo, but it is only an optical illusion. The architect, Dietmar Feichtinger, wanted to give this bridge the curves of a women. A tribute to femimity depicted so well by Simone de Beauvoir. RFR, a Paris based team of engineers worked on the sketch design of this bridge. And guess where this bridge is leading to ? To the French National Library (Tres Grande Bibliotheque). |
