03 CHURCH-ITA
2005-2008 / Talca, Chile / Co-Author
Susuka Architects: Juan Pablo Corvalan_Gabriel Vergara In difficult neighborhoods a church is not only a place for cult. It embraces a social program. In this case, the budget was very low (60000 U$ for a 200 m2 chapel) and the site, small and irregular. A series of proposals evolved to a single torsion volume that avoids a front and rear faรงade, plus it evokes the reigning geometry; more a covered plaza than a building, a sign of optimism in harsh conditions; a light in darkness.
