Norman Foster, a key figure in high-tech architecture, unveils his latest project, the Gateway to Venice's Waterway, at the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale. In collaboration with Porsche and the Norman Foster Foundation, this innovative structure seamlessly combines aesthetics with functionality as a bridge, sculpture, and EV charging station. With its unique, tessellated design, it emphasizes the shift towards multimodal urban networks. The project aims to enhance urban transportation and is significant for spotlighting the growing importance of electric mobility, contributing to the future of sustainable city infrastructure.
Foster describes the Gateway as both "an animal with a head, body, and tail" and as "a platform to explore new forms of clean mobility."
His latest project extends high-tech architecture into electric mobility, showcasing a sinuous structure that highlights advanced engineering and machine-age aesthetics.
