Bamboo chapel

Cemetery and chapel: stepped graves following the topography, a light translucent building at the top — an ascent from earth to sky.

Structural axonometric
The structural axonometric brings the system’s elements together, complementing the separate views of material and structure.

Exterior
The exterior presents the lightweight chapel at the top of the complex, introducing the relationship between building, cemetery and terrain.

Path beneath the lattice
The route beneath the screen brings the reading closer to the experience of ascent and the filter accompanying movement.

Interior
The interior presents the chapel’s gathering space, contrasting the experience within the room with the exterior views.

Roof
The roof view concentrates on the building’s upper enclosure, bringing form, structure and interior space back into relation.

The nave
The nave closes the sequence in the chapel’s main space after examining landscape, material, structure and architectural organisation.

The bamboo
The bamboo image brings the project closer to its principal material and complements the overall reading of the lightweight building.

Structure
The structural view shifts attention from the exterior volume to the elements that articulate the chapel’s construction.
