DC Structures Studio

Award winning bridge designers

Our core focus is pedestrian bridge design and bridge architecture.
We are a specialist bridge design firm who help Councils, Designers, Contractors, and Developers deliver creative, vibrant, cost effective footbridges and cyclebridges. 

We aim to design NZ bridges that local and regional communities can be proud of – and more importantly – that they can afford.

Delivering cost effective but striking bridges

We combine sleek bridge engineering forms with thoughtful and elegant detailing. Streamlined bridge architecture is synonymous with the most cost-effective options and striking this balance between “cost” vs. “beauty” is our core strength and a great driving principle for clients and communities.
