IDA 2024 NOW OPEN -- Final Deadline November 30, 2024
Located in the heart of Fuzhou, this sanctuary reflects a Christian Community’s hope to become a positive energy in the chaotic city. Adjacent to a historical church and entrenched by large blocks it acts as urban mediator - harmonizing contrasts in style and scale and complementing the church’s skyline. Finished in a traditional pebble dash technique the façade makes a counterstatement to the generic curtain walls encircling it. The roofs serve as elevated amphitheaters for open-air services and have become popular scenic spots also to the public offering a free view onto the old town nearby.
