Concept
The project is a Cross Tower added to existing church. Arch with cross on top is all made of steel plate 500mm wide and 28mm thick. By gradually twisting the plate toward the bottom will strengthen the structure as well as creating a welcoming gesture to the cross tower as a gate. White painted surface will reflect sun, color of sky, or shadow of clouds. Very delicate and abstract appearance was achieved.
