New book on Ney & Partners – Bridging. By foot and bicycle (BE)

This book offers an unique insight into the design process behind 21 footbridges. Physical and historical context, technical constraints, ecology and economy, culture and process are some of the key notions that underlie each unique project. The designer, architect and engineer Laurent Ney reveals the complexity that characterizes each structure and how, through an integrated vision of architecture and engineering, we can achieve objects that fit significantly into our tradition. The french critic Bertrand Lemoine introduced the practise of Ney & Partners. The book will be availble from 16th of January in the bookshops. Publisher, Archibooks, Paris ISBN 978-2-3533-496-0
