DETAILED FOCUS ON ROOF
FROM THE SANCTUARY PROJECT, THE ROOF OF THE MAIN GATHERING SPACE WHERE THE ALTAR PIECE SITS, WAS NOT FULLY DEVELOPED. AFTER CHOOSING TO FURTHER DEVELOP THE ROOF STRUCTURE, MORE CLARITY WAS MADE ABOUT THE LIGHT IN THE SPACE. THE BEAMS PLAY A ROLE IN MAKING LIGHT PATTERNS THROUGHOUT THE DAY. THE MODEL PHOTOS SHOW HOW LIGHT PIERCES THROUGH INTO THE SPACE WITHOUT THE STRUCTURE BLOCKING IT. THE BEAMS ARE SUPPORTING THE OPPOSING PART OF THE ROOF WHICH ARE MADE OF STEEL TO SUPPORT THE HAVINESS OF THE ROOF. THEY CROSS IN AN X PATTERN TO KEEP THE MIDDLE OPEN.
