Light Project
Idea Formation:
The college wants to add a non-denominational to the
campus. A spot for the chapel hasn’t been decided yet, but the chapel has to be
designed in a space that would use natural light wisely.
Rank/sort:
Main chapel
Side chapel
Lobby
Outdoor space
Offices/other spaces

Analysis of campus:
I decided to use the original system of the campus,
where there was two sides to the central circle. Also most of the buildings now
are built only towards one side of the campus or scattered at an angle. I
decided to use the most important parts of the chapel and turn it towards the
same angle so that it can use the , east, south and
west sunlight.
REASEARCH:
San’t Andrea Al Quirinale
The churches baroque
design has a mix of concave and convex surfaces which helps the natural light
guide the focus towards the main alter.
