The final model was designed with the original theory in mind, where form and function seamlessly combined to create a structure that would exhibit both architectural and engineering innovations. The combination of the mechanical design together with the visually elegant flow of the bridge allow the structure to exude a sense of grace while also appearing dynamic.

The stairs are the moving element in this structure, it moves from the bridge floor to allow access into the overhead lecture hall, workshops and offices from the bridge. Once dropped to the ground floor the moving element also grants access to pedestrians from the ground into the bridge, hence improving circulation
The layout of the structure was influenced by Villa Rotunda by Palladio, the floor plan and section were manipulated in some aspects for it to fit into the design of my building
