This paper will discuss the positive outcomes which early collaboration can have on the overall design of a bridge, focusing on the relationship between Knight Architects and COWI throughout the early stages of design. It will discuss the key benefits gained and how a balanced workflow can be achieved, using Ailsa Wharf; a live project currently awaiting planning submission, as an exemplar project. It will take the reader through the design process showing the different decisions and influences that informed the overall design of the bridge.
