Extract of the jury’s comment on Tintagel Castle Footbridge by Ney & Partners and William Matthews Associates:
“This new bridge is beautifully executed at all scales, from the way it respects the silhouette of the landforms it abuts, down to the tactile detail of its path, made from slate on edge…
This is much more than a bridge. It is a connector, an enabler, an interpreter and a spectacle all within its own right.”
The winner was announced on November 10 and is Kingston University London – Town House designed by Grafton Architects.
Tintagel Footbridge nominated for RIBA Stirling Award
