Here, the commonplace act of crossing a bridge has been enhanced by the introduction of different routes which each serve to boost the sensation of moving over the river. On the gradual transition from the residential area to the museum, a narrow passage limits visual contact with the surroundings until a large open space is reached.
This journey emphasises the monumental scale of the museum, drawing visitors towards its entrance. The overall experience has clear associations with the water running below: it evokes hovering, submersion and emergence. A bridge to ideas, inspired by the very water it crosses.
