  • About Firm
    Archi-Neering-Design/AND Office was co-founded by ZHANG Zhun, GUO Yimin and LIU Yichun in 2016 in Shanghai, China, who joined the juxtaposition of structure and architecture as a structural engineer, an architectural professor, and an architect. NAN Architects is established by Xu Nan in 2014. Practical projects cover architecture, bridges, planning, interior spaces and industrial products.

The image of "mountain" has a relatively high degree of conformity with the shape of the arch bridge. The design of the arch ring of this bridge pays more attention to the connotation of mechanics while paying more attention to cultural symbols. Triangular arches and radial cables have corresponding mechanical connections. The interlacing of multiple triangular arches increases the mechanical stability of the arch ring and gives it a vivid shape.
