RESTORING THE BALANCE: The Photographers’ Bridge and Obsura

This project aims to propose an elegant occupied bridge across the site of the re-imagined Princes Street Gardens as a marshland. This re-instates the landscape to its previous condition as it once stood as the great Nor loch. The bridge is inherently tectonic in its building layers; the great red steel structure is an ode to the Forth Rail Bridge and holds within it, contained timber inhabited spaces that at moments protrude from their frame - offering moments of observation and contemplation. Its cantilevered design brings with it notions of balance and meets with a tenderness at its middlemost point: a suspended in-between landing point.

This bridge is one of destination rather than connection or journeying, encouraging the prolonged experience of its local landscape in which it lives.

Inhabited Views - Camera Obscura Film

The phenomenon of a camera obscura bridges the gap between optical devices and architectural interiors. 

In this condition, the dweller experiences both the interior and exterior worlds simultaneously; becoming both participant and observer. 

This film explores this superposition within a domestic setting where the outside picture of passing traffic from an Edinburgh street can be seen reflected upon the ceiling inside.
