Chapel Floor Plan Progress

The floor plan for the chapel i came up with was originally a campus like orientation where the buildings were centered around a triangular open space that pointed towards the zen view closer to the ocean.







From there, I tried to consolidate the floor plan so that the buildings would be more integrated into each other. There would still be two components that would stand away from each other; the office and the zen view. This was to provide more privacy for the function of those spaces. The side chapel and the lobby would be attached to the main chapel. The office would be detached to the right marking the perimeter lines of the main building, and the zen view would remain near the "cliff like" part of the area.




Lastly, in trying to consolidate the form further the office space would be integrated into the main building. This was primarily done to simplify the forms and shapes of the buildings surrounding the main chapel, and making sure that the main chapel remains the main focus as one enters the site.
