Corten steel

The bridge, which was designed with engineering company Expedition Engineering, was built from three weathering steel arches that increase in height from west to east as the spans grow. This means that the path curves around an existing building, creating the most efficient route. Useful Studio chose the material due to its durable nature as the bridge's location over train lines means that any maintenance needed would be costly. The studio aimed to create a "zero maintenance" bridge.

MoDus Architects imagined the portals as "expressive figures whose raised heads emerge from the buried, unseen networks" of the roads hidden in the hillsides.

Rounded chimneys of weathering steel poke through the hillside, branching like trees.

This Corten steel-clad house was designed to "feel familiar and disorientating at the same time" like a David Lynch or Peter Greenaway film.

Profiled Corten steel was chosen for the cladding of this guesthouse as the architects thought it abstract enough to fit with the interior, while its colour suits the surrounding trees and garden well.

Within the block views of the lake and buildings in the surrounding village are framed by large windows that on first floor protrude from the Corten building.

Paris architecture studio Ateliers O-S Architectes has added a concrete and weathering steel extension to a junior school in the village of Lugrin overlooking Lake Geneva.

Three boxes clad with perforated Corten steel form cantilevers on this house in Piura designed by Cheng + Franco Arquitectos. Each of the extended volumes rests on top of exposed concrete walls and covers a bridleway for horses leading to the training grounds on the other end of the property.

Corten steel is used throughout the public spaces of this winery, while the domestic spaces feature a more humble material palette of pale concrete and natural wood.

This winery also double as a public gallery or events space. The weathering steel surfaces helps to clearly demarcate the areas designed for displaying artworks..

New windows were added to this winery, to allow views right through the building. Most are rectangular, but there's also a large round window in one of the ground-floor walls. The new additions are reinforced by the use of Corten, a weathering steel with a distinctive rusty colour and texture. It clads internal and external walls, and also frames the new windows.

Corten steel walls, a circular window and a big cross all feature in this house renovated by Raúl Sánchez Architects for a winery in Catalonia.
