# Circular Infinity Bridges This Wooden Bridge Boardwalk Goes a Full 360 Degrees From Land to Water By Ady Floyd | Published 2015-07-18 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-bridge References: [swipelife](http://swipelife.com/2015/07/the-infinite-bridge-by-gjode-povlsgaard-arkitekter-connects-the-city-to-surrounding/) & [gpark.dk](http://www.gpark.dk/) Danish architect design studio Gjode & Povlsgaard Arkitekter created this unique wooden bridge as a sculpture project. It is an aesthetically breathtaking bridge from above and it acts as a playful walking trail on land. The [circular bridge](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woven-gateway-and-sky-ring) is located on the [beachfront](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smrket) so pedestrians have access to the portion of bridge that is embedded in the sand. The bridge unfolds into the water like a dock. This is where a majority of the wooden bridge sits. The boardwalk is made of 60 wooden elements that allow the bridge to rise above the water level depending on the time of day and season. The idea for this project was to connect the city with the bay. By incorporating both locations, it allows local citizens and tourists to become more aware of the beautiful scenery. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 63% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Circular Architecture:** Architecture is moving towards circular design principles that prioritize aesthetics that create an emotional connection with nature. - **Eco-tourism:** More and more tourists are demanding environmentally responsible travel options, and projects like the circular infinity bridge offer new possibilities for sustainable development. - **Smart Infrastructure:** Smart infrastructure can allow for adaptable and dynamic public spaces that transform with the environment, allowing communities to maximize the potential of their natural surroundings. ### Where This Applies - **Architecture and Design:** Architects and designers can leverage circular design principles to create visually stunning structures that respect the environment. - **Construction and Engineering:** Incorporating innovative building materials and technologies can allow construction companies to deliver more sustainable and adaptable structures. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Travel and tourism companies can embrace eco-friendly concepts like the circular infinity bridge to attract responsible tourists and create memorable experiences that reflect their values. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Triple Path Footbridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/three-waves-footbridge.md) - [Spirally Viewpoint Bridge Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/g-clef-bridge.md) - [Welded Steel Cantilevered Footbridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-footbridge.md) - [Boat-Inspired Community Center](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/esbjerg-maritime-center.md) - [Weathering Steel Rolling Bridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cody-dock.md) - [Taiwan Coastal Bridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-danjiang-bridge.md) - [Sculptural Pedestrian Bridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asiatdarse.md) - [Bridge-Defining Tranquil Cities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindfulness-city.md) - [Sheltered Timber Chinese Bridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fw-ji-covered-bridge-on-aqueduct.md)
