From the Desque of the Modernesque

From the Desque of the Modernesque, the Future, Past, Present collide, in the moments before they vanished. The timing, of a retro futuristic intent, drives the willing to seek its infinite applications. The road taken, combines and unwinds, the minds open source amplification. Reignite, the requirement of pondering, the restless enormity, of a well designed response. Vinyl spins, tape records, disc drives, modems static, cable ready, fiber optics, Wi-Fi connect. To all of yesterdays Future, today’s Past, and ever Present. Now stop, now begin again. Fidel Jiron Jr. (February 5th, 2010)

Eye Catching Lucky Knot Bridge

The Lucky Knot Bridge by NEXT Architects is a key project in developing the area’s public space, and was designed with recreational, ecological and tourist activities in mind. The bridge connects multiple levels at different heights (the river banks, the road, the higher-placed park as well as the interconnections between them). The final shape of the bridge is the result of -literally and metaphorically- knotting all these routes together. “The shape of the Lucky Knot was inspired by the principle of the Mobius ring, as well as by the Chinese knotting art. In the ancient decorative Chinese folk art, the knot symbolises luck and prosperity,” says John van de Water, partner at NEXT architects Beijing. The bridge owes its imaginative appeal to the combining of tradition and modernity.

“The Lucky Knot is more than a bridge and a connection between two river banks. Its success lays in bringing cultures together, and in the fusion of history, technology, art, innovation, architecture and spectacle,” adds NEXT architects Beijing partner Jiang Xiaofei.

The Lucky Knot connects, illuminates and entertains. The bridge offers a spectacular view of the river, Meixi Lake, the city of Changsha and the surrounding mountain range. Thanks to its remarkable LED lightshow, the bridge is set to become a landmark attraction in the light route that traces the path of the Dragon King Harbour River.
