GRAND CANYON SKYWALK: Las Vegas USAFinder: David Jin
The Vision:
"Just like an eagle can fly into the Grand Canyon, my vision was to enable visitors to walk the path of the eagle, and become surrounded by the Grand Canyon while standing at the edge of the Glass Bridge.
The bridge gives is a chance to share the wonder of the canyon that the Huafapai Tribe has graciously offered.
My dream was to find the balance between form function and nature. Once a dream.... Now a reality"...

This phenomenon is the result of a very strong concept . David Jin has nailed 'free spirited' design by comparing it to a bird, whats more free then a bird?
This precedent combines elements of the previous two. The cantilever with the glass platform, allows for visitors to successfully take the path of a bird and sweep over one of the great wonders of the world.
