pontis m. Latin [a bridge , gangway; the deck of a ship]
The work focuses on Wallsend Metro and Segedunum Museum. The museum is
not visible from the metro and the access between the two is neither obvious
nor pleasant. Pontis visually addresses these
issues and will increase awareness about the present hierarchy between
transport structures. A visual link will be established between the metro
and the museum through a colour scheme that will link lighting, planting
and paving. Segedunum Tower and the Metro Station will be lit internally
in lavender, the colour that will unite all the elements of the commission.
Segedunum will act as a beacon at night, the height of the tower will
make it clearly visible to the surrounding area.
