Chapel in the Woods
Previous / Next image (1 of 3)

A nondenominational chapel in a wooded site overlooks a small river. Predominantly used for private meditation, the chapel will also house ecumenical services.


A long walking path adjacent to the chapel leads visitors to an elevated all-wood rectilinear tube supported by articulated beams. Abrupt darkness within the chapel is interrupted by light accepted through a narrow void in the roof plane. The void is echoed by a tall aperture above the altar which offers a slight but distant view out.
