The site, situated along the Capibaribe River in Recife, NE Brazil, encompasses the neighborhoods of Santana and Torre. As the subject of a national design competition, the area of intervention spans two riverbanks and necessitates a connecting crossing. The competition brief calls for addressing the social needs of this urban locale, fostering interaction and cohesion among its inhabitants.

The proposed solution aims to make a social impact while integrating technology, environmental considerations, and cultural context. Recognizing the critical importance of sustainability in contemporary design, the project draws inspiration from nature, employing biomimetics and parametric design during the conceptual phase. By observing the movement of the river and the ubiquitous fishing nets along its banks, the "Crossing" project seeks innovative solutions to enhance connectivity and harmony within the urban landscape
