EXTERIOR V1.png

This proposed project focus' on non-denominational chapel located on the campus of Farmingdale State College. The College wants this to be a profoundly spiritual place that people of all faiths can worship and reflect on life’s events. The College believes this can be achieved by the creative use of light. The College is looking for guidance from the Architect. The building is integrated into the fabric of the campus and on the public square.

SITE SELECTION
 

I had decided on this Specific location as it serves as an area that can be seen as more distant from the rest of the buildings within the campus. It is secluded from many other buildings, making it more spacious to reach a higher chance of light entering the building.
