摩西橋
Moses Bridge

RO&；建筑設計師：西布拉班特水線是一條防線，由荷蘭西南部的一系列堡壘和城市組成，這些堡壘和城市都有淹沒區(qū)。它可以追溯到17世紀，但在19世紀年久失修。當水線最終恢復時，需要一座橫跨其中一座要塞——魯維堡護城河的通道橋。這座堡壘現(xiàn)在有了一個新的娛樂功能，位于自行車和徒步旅行的多條路線上。當然，在防御工程的護城河上修建橋梁是非常不恰當?shù)模绕涫窃陬A計敵人將出現(xiàn)的要塞一側(cè)。這就是我們設計隱形橋的原因。其結構完全由木材制成，用三元乙丙橡膠箔防水。這座橋就像堡壘和護城河中的一條溝渠，形狀與景觀輪廓融為一體。從遠處看不到這座橋，因為地面和水一直流到橋的邊緣。當你走近時，城堡會通過一條狹窄的壕溝向你敞開。然后你可以像摩西在水上一樣走到城門。
RO&AD architecten: The West Brabant Water Line is a defence-line consisting of a series of fortresses and cities with inundation areas in the south-west of the Netherlands. It dates from the 17th century but fell into disrepair in the 19th century. When the water line was finally restored, an access bridge across the the moat of one of the fortresses, Fort de Roovere, was needed. This fort now has a new, recreational function and lies on several routes for cycling and hiking. It is, of course, highly improper to build bridges across the moats of defence works, especially on the side of the fortress the enemy was expected to appear on. That’s why we designed an invisible bridge. Its construction is entirely made of wood, waterproofed with EPDM foil. The bridge lies like a trench in the fortress and the moat, shaped to blend in with the outlines of the landscape. The bridge can’t be seen from a distance because the ground and the water come all the way up to its edge. When you get closer, the fortress opens up to you through a narrow trench. You can then walk up to its gates like Moses on the water.
