摩西桥
Moses Bridge

RO&；建筑设计师：西布拉班特水线是一条防线，由荷兰西南部的一系列堡垒和城市组成，这些堡垒和城市都有淹没区。它可以追溯到17世纪，但在19世纪年久失修。当水线最终恢复时，需要一座横跨其中一座要塞——鲁维堡护城河的通道桥。这座堡垒现在有了一个新的娱乐功能，位于自行车和徒步旅行的多条路线上。当然，在防御工程的护城河上修建桥梁是非常不恰当的，尤其是在预计敌人将出现的要塞一侧。这就是我们设计隐形桥的原因。其结构完全由木材制成，用三元乙丙橡胶箔防水。这座桥就像堡垒和护城河中的一条沟渠，形状与景观轮廓融为一体。从远处看不到这座桥，因为地面和水一直流到桥的边缘。当你走近时，城堡会通过一条狭窄的壕沟向你敞开。然后你可以像摩西在水上一样走到城门。
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.
