Crescent Moon Arbor Swing-Bridge

Utilize a heavy-duty plywood bending jig to steam-press layers of white oak into a consistent crescent arc. This forms the primary structural rails that will support the suspended floor planks.

Install custom-forged iron tension rods that bridge the two tree trunks, allowing for slight natural movement in the wind. These rods anchor the framework and ensure the integrity of the curved path.

Arrange heat-treated ash deck boards in a fanned pattern along the curve, securing them with marine-grade fasteners to resist moisture. This creates a tactile, barefoot-friendly surface that follows the organic geometry of the arch.

Wrap the outer rail with hand-woven rope netting to provide an unobtrusive safety barrier that maintains an airy, ethereal aesthetic. The final result is a functional transition space that feels like walking on a suspended crescent.
