Members of the Polyhedral Structures Laboratory at the Weitzman School and collaborators from neighboring institutions fabricated the Glass Bridge over the course of 21 days. Their plans necessitated a wooden support designed by research assistant Boyu Xiao to hold the hollow glass units in place during assembly.
