Northern Spire is a 105-meter-tall cable-stayed bridge spanning the River Wear in Sunderland. As the city's first new road bridge in more than 45 years, it improves connectivity with two traffic lanes, dedicated cycleways, and pedestrian paths while supporting the ongoing regeneration of the surrounding area. Its 340-meter span is supported by a striking A-frame pylon, making it one of the city's most recognizable engineering landmarks.

Spyre is a kinetic sculpture by Ron Arad, presented at the Royal Academy of Arts in London in 2016. The approximately 16-meter-high weathering steel structure was divided into five moving sections, each driven by its own mechanical system. Independent movement allowed the sculpture to continuously change position, while a camera mounted at its tip transmitted a live view of its surroundings onto the façade of Burlington House.

Arnhem Central Transfer Terminal features a flowing design and a roof that spans up to 60 meters without a single column—demanding a rethink of traditional construction. CIG replaced the original all-concrete concept with a lighter steel solution, shaping the structure with shipbuilding techniques.

We provided design assistance, structural engineering, material selection, production, pre-assembly, and on-site installation, delivering a fluid space that sets a precedent for transport hubs.

Located in Piazza Italia at Expo 2015 in Milan, The Wings by Daniel Libeskind consisted of four monumental sculptural structures positioned at the corners of the Expo’s central square. Rising 10 meters high, each sculpture spiraled upward from the ground before branching outward into illuminated wings spanning across the public space.

Passage by Maha Mustafa was the winning competition proposal for Dag Hammarskjöld Square, forming the centerpiece of Malmö's new cultural city center. The sculpture consists of two weathering steel spirals that coil, twist, and intertwine before rising to a height of eight meters. Their flowing form suggests movement and transformation while inviting visitors to experience the surrounding public space from multiple perspectives.
