Hey guys,
I've finally settled with a final floor plan. Now, I'm currently trying to finalize my designs for a ceiling with expressive lighting. I've been exploring triangular light wells and I really like the kind of light they let in. However, I'm having quite a bit of trouble trying to envision what I want out of them, i.e., how I would want these shapes to interact with the rest of the chapel. They're such great, unique shapes but however I arrange them, I somehow feel like it's too messy.

So, for a moment, a scrapped the light wells. Tired, frustrated, and immensely hungry I meant to walk it out in the studio but when I found a thick piece of acrylic from the laser cutting class. I took some triangles I cut out from my botched experiments and stuck them on the acetate as if I had triangular blocks surrounded by glass in the ceiling. I put that on my chapel and took it to the photographer's light. Of all the iterations that night, this was by far the most interesting. The triangles and the illuminated spaces between them (thin lines) created this interesting patter on the front right corner. It's interesting and complex and I am tempted to move on and take the serendipitous ceiling but the only thing holding me back is the nagging question--is this too crazily irreverent for a sacred space?

On other matters, models are in process. Ceiling, of course, will come last.

I'm sorry this post does not have a picture of the expressive light. My phone camera is not capturing it well. But one will come up most likely today.
