Wankdorf Roundabout
Suspension Structure in Switzerland’s capital
An elegant 60 x 60 meter suspension rope structure that hovers over the new two-level roundabout in Switzerland‘s capital.
Road traffic is routed on two separate levels. The key feature of the functional and aesthetic solution: four corner pylons with the suspension rope grid that carries the 2 x 2 meter lighting units. The design constitutes a new urban landmark in the northern part of Berne.
