| Terunobu Fujimori | LignoAlp Barth Interni | Hut | The chapel consists of a single hall covered by a black wooden roof, where a cross arises from the inside of the chapel. On the front the little portico is delimited by six not completely barked pine trunks that enframe an extremely narrowed entrance door. The exterior walls are black. | Internally the chapel contains a bright single nave space, under a gabled roof, sustained by a visible wooden structure. The floor is made of loose gravel and above it eight wooden benches are positioned in two rows. On the background the wall is covered by fragments of char, which emphasize the big wooden cross in the middle, scattered with sheets of gold leaf, meaning the resurrection after the death. The light filters from the windows located on the superior part of the side walls, which are decorated with washi paper designed by the architect. | Wood | 8,5 x 6 m
Entrance door width: 40cm |
| Souto de Moura | Laboratorio Morseletto | Dolmen | The massive monolithic structure has a precise and simple geometrical form, an elongated and partially covered isosceles trapezoid, composed by large blocks of bright stone, resting on top of each other. From the outside the stone is rough, showing its material concreteness. | The internal hall is subdivided in two spaces: a little roofless atrium, similar to a narthex, marks the entrance, and after this there is the main hall, partially covered by two huge slabs of stone. Visitors can sit along the walls on the ledge of the stone. A squared cube of stone is located in the middle and it represents the altar. In the inside of the chapel the stone is levigated and on the rear wall two lines engraved in the wall form a cross. | Vicenza stone | Total area: 30m2 |
| Smiljan Radic | Saint-Gobain Italia | Animitas (chilean shrine) | The chapel presents a truncated cone shape, covered by a sheet of transparent glass on the top. It is a dark structure delimited by eight reinforced concrete walls, that have been assembled on site and whose external texture is rough. To enter in the chapel the visitor needs to move across a big wooden door, that can never be completely closed. | Inside the chapel the texture of the walls presents small and irregular concave semi-spheres, realized by covering the formwork with pluriball, a plastic material made of tiny air bubbles, before pouring the cement inside. In the middle the huge cross is made by two axes: on the roof there is a horizontal steel beam, from which a long wooden trunk descends, leaning on a concrete base on the floor. | Reinforced concrete, steel, wood, glass | Height: 5 m
Roof: 3x6 m |
| Andrew Berman | Moretti Terna | Hut | The dark grey chapel has a traditional triangular shape. The external presents an open-space portico with a bench in the middle where the visitor is invited to sit and meditate, covered by the roof. | The chapel is provided with two entries, one on the left and the other on the right side of the external bench. Inside the atmosphere is dark, interrupted only by a light that filters from a skylight in the roof. On the background there is a wooden triangular block, which can be considered as a little altar. | Traslucid polycarbonate, wood | Triangular plan: 7 m for each side |
