Category:
Best Project of Building or Facility by Student
About the project (provided by the applicant):
This church facility includes a temple for 400 people, a parish house with a youth center, and a chapel in the beautified Prometheus garden. The proposal offers a contemporary take on the Orthodox architecture concept. The one-dome temple that was popular in the 15th and early 16th century was used as the general archetype. The helm-shaped dome refers to the Old Russian church architecture. Soft curves of the facades refer to flames of candles in the church chandelier.
