THE CATHOLIC CHAPEL

ARCHITECTURE
1.9 2012 – 11.1 2013

The task was to create a chapel dedicated to a catholic association on the mountain Schöckl in Graz, Austria. The chapel would constantly be open to the public to enter and would on special occasions arrange baptisms and weddings.

The requirements were:

  • Approximately 20 seats and as many standing as possible.
  • No barriers.
  • Storm, snow and frost secure.
  • So little maintenance as possible. (No installation necessary.)
