Case Study—24m Illuminated Bridge, Chelsea Creek
Client: Elite Landscapes for Berkeley St George—Ref 4234
Location: Chelsea Creek, London
Length: 24.0m
Width: 3.0m
Form: Bespoke Steel Frame Bridge with illuminated parapet
Project Description
To complete the hard landscaping around the
Chelsea Creek luxury apartment development,
London developer, Berkeley St George needed a
statement bridge.
The 24m long bridge comprises a deceptively simple,
elegant concept incorporating acrylic rods into the
painted steel frame at close centres which when lit
from their base provide an illuminated enclosure,
while a stripped down secondary internal handrail
provides pedestrian restraint.
To achieve the desired simple lines, careful detailing
was required to house the lighting rods and conceal
their power supply and driver units discreetly.
Precision fabrication was needed to realise this
ambition.
The light boxes were incorporated integrally into the
base of the structural beams ready for the lighting
contractor Wishbone Exterior Lighting to work their
magic and illuminate the bridge with a combination of
uplights and patterned acrylic tubes, supplied by
Anglia Plastics.
The final result is a stunning illuminated bridge that
provides a stylish focal point over the meandering
waterway the Chelsea Creek development.
