Mini-City Bridges

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Paik Nam June Media Bridge is a Self-Sufficient Mega-Structure

— October 20, 2010 — Eco
The Paik Nam June Media Bridge concept makes anything seem possible. This structural wonder is not only a bridge, but also a mini-city.

Designed by Seoul-based architectural firm Planning Korea, the Paik Nam June Media Bridge would boast "a park, malls, a museum and a meeting space," according to PSFK. This interesting bridge will also generate its own energy as it will be wrapped in solar panels, making it both intriguing and energy-efficient.
