New wood Japanese bridge blends local and modern design
Kengo Kuma and Associates, a world-renowned Japanese architecture firm, recently completed the Kusugibashi Bridge in Osogoe, Shuto Town, Iwakuni City in Japan. The bridge is a replacement for the old overpass that was destroyed by the Western Japan Flood in 2018. The new, parametric wood bridge blends modern design with traditional methods and locally-sourced materials. Additionally, this new piece of infrastructure will serve as an attraction and symbolize the local community.
