Week 7 - Church of Light

The Church of Light by Tadao Ando is primarily constructed of concrete and glass. There is a small gap between the slabs of concrete running around the whole perimeter of the church at a height of 3.95 metres. The small gap aligns with the horizontal axis of the large cross and could be the perfect site either for cracking or for vegetation to begin to grow. The floor is made from recycled timber which would be prone to rotting.
