Infinity Bridge
Surely something as nice as the recently illuminated Infinity Bridge can’t be in Stockton-on-Tees? Designed by Expedition Engineering, the slender bowstring bridge cuts a distinctive silhouette across the River Tees. A 230m-long concrete walkway is supported by a pair of asymmetric steel arches that appear to skip across the river like a pebble skimming water.
Speirs and Major Associates designed the lighting in such a way that the iconic twin arches reflect in the water at night to form the mathematical symbol for infinity (∞) – hence the name. We’re told the unusual bit about the project is the way the lights respond to the movement of pedestrians, of which there is a video here.

Till Wiedeck dropped us a line to say, “I have updated my website with a big work-update for 2010 including two new typefaces and 13 new projects designed in the past months.” In addition to this cracking update, Till also says, “Furthermore I just lounged HelloYou, a collection of thoughts & things created and curated by HelloMe / Till Wiedeck. This is the place where I will be posting news about the studio, recent activities, thoughts, references and collected things from now on.”
