Entering the UTA Bridge the Gap competition with Elizabeth Adebayo and Tony Pham as Studio8, the two week design event was concerned with the Arlington major road, Cooper Street, that divides the UTA Campus, and the series of three bridges that connect the East and West edges of campus.

The goal was two examine the North and South bridges, and reimagine their role as a part of the developing fabric of Arlington and the University. The task being to redesign the connecting corridors in a way that will immediatly begin to restitch the campus in 2023, as well as a projection for what the broader community might look like in 2030

Studio8’s analysis of the city and interest in public transportation were the primary motivators for the development of the design, and the resultant proposal.
