Section Model

Hi everyone,

Here are a couple pictures of my section model at 1/4". I've made a lot of revisions after the midreview, including simplifying the circulation and changing the location of the side chapel. You can see in the pictures how the interior wall separates the main chapel with the side chapel. I wanted my chapel to focus on the interior experience, suggested by the sloping roof and the triangular point of the building. Conversely, my side chapel is meant to be a more outward experience, allowing people to reflect while enjoying the beautiful views of the ocean. It is hard to tell from the photographs, but the slits between the wall and the roof allow a small amount of light to enter the chapel from the side. The main expressive light features still comes from the slit in the center of the building.

Now that I am content with my floor plan, I am working out the details of how I want to incorporate windows into the main chapel walls and really make the point of the triangle a special structure.
