福斯特建筑事务所与Tecno合作,在威尼斯圣乔治马焦雷岛(San Giorgio Maggiore)的森林地区建造教堂。教堂位于两片树林之间,可欣赏到湖泊景色,教堂由三个具有象征意义的十字架和一个木制甲板组成,上方覆盖着帐篷状的木质网格构架。
Foster + Partners unveiled their design concept for one of the 10 temporary chapels of the first ever Vatican City pavilion at the 2018 Venice Biennale.
Collaborating with Tecno, Foster + Partners will build their chapel in a forest area at one end of the Venetian island of San Giorgio Maggiore. Located between two mature trees with a view of a lagoon, the chapel comprises of three symbolic crosses and a timber deck, which will be “draped” over with a tent-like, wooden latticework structure.
“It was like a small oasis in the big garden, perfect for contemplation. Our aim is to create a small sanctuary space diffused with dappled shade and removed from the normality of passers-by, focussed instead on the water and sky beyond,” Norman Foster describes.
