Modern Church |
15 place Georges Pompidou Paris 93160 +33 1 43 04 51 55 http://www.ville-noisylegrand.fr/decouvrir.asp?IdPage=2766&IdDiapo=775 |
This church, while retaining its function as a sacred space, is rendered utterly modern by the character and design of its architecture. Created by André Schulz in 1993, the simple, straightforward appearance creates a welcoming atmosphere in an original fashion. Respect for the past is shown through traditional symbols such as a lightwell bringing rays of sunlight into the church, and a stone from the Basilique Saint-Denis incorporated into one of the walls. The sunlight streaming through the lightwell and through 8 colorful stained-glass windows makes the place a pleasant center of contemplation and meditation. Review © 2009, Wcities |
