Ayang Gichatgil is a design project whose aim was to preserve a railway bridge in Daegu, Korea, built in 1935 that had fallen into disuse. Once the bridge had been saved from demolition, it was converted and turned into relaxation areas and a museum in order to breathe new life into the whole bridge and its surroundings. As a pedestrian crossing, the bridge provides a better link between urban areas and also serves as a meeting point for increased interaction. The design unites structural and civil engineering, construction, materials engineering and visual techniques.

This project impressively demonstrates how old infrastructure can be usefully converted to fulfil new functions.
