| Location: Stone Mill Artist: Silver Maple Construction RESERVED FOR STONE MILL Inspiration: Welcome to Oona’s bridge to the future. Oona was originally envisioned by a member of the Silver Maple team as a play space for his daughter, but when we saw it, we were immediately compelled to have one of our own. The simple design and inviting curves welcome you in and its window-like structure gives you a feeling of being captured in a snapshot of the view. We incorporated Oona into our Bridges 20/20 project because, in these uncertain times, having a place to gather (at 6’) in a space that invokes whimsy while enjoying a view of something beautiful speaks to Middlebury’s bright future…so long as we band together as a community to make it happen. |

| Location: Behind Twilight Hall/Storrs Park Artist: Salamander Construction Delivery Costs & Details: $1500 for install within 45 minutes of Middlebury. Delivery needs to be made to a level surface or pre-prepared foundation that is within reach of a crane truck. Additional services or additional travel time would be offered for additional cost to be determined with more details. Inspiration: Everyone in the Salamander Crew are outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy camping and taking advantage of the state park system in Vermont. We thought incorporating a lean-to style "treehouse" of sorts as part of the bridge would be fun and functional. We've created a small version of a lean-to on a bridge that you can travel through or hang out/camp out in! |
