A campus chapel design faces the challenge of accommodating students from many different religious backgrounds. The multi-faith chapel focuses on the individual rather than a particular faith. It provides a space for spiritual preparation that separates one from distractions through an intimate, tranquil design using the sound of water, natural light, and simple materials. This allows for either individual meditation or small group worship in a flexibly planned space.

1. A campus chapel design is a tough
challenge due to the many different
religious backgrounds of the student body.
The design of a multi-faith chapel goes
beyond the needs of a particular faith
and instead focuses on the individual.
This chapel focuses on the preparation one
needs when entering a worship space. There
is a separation from worldly distractions,
spiritually enriching space, and simple
material palette. The space is intimate
by providing either a small worship space
or meditation room. Tranquility is used by
the sound of water during the preparation
and a simple wash of natural light
across the textured interior materials.
