Sometimes a design is so striking, so original that it just “is”, something immediately obvious and crucial all at once. This gorgeous Ribbon Chapel is just that. Pure and simple, yet undoubtedly complex in its planning and construction. The entrance pathway seamlessly swoops up to become the walls and structure of the chapel, culminating with a stunning observatory on top. Located on a beautiful little hill in Hiroshima overlooking the inland Sea of Japan, Hiroshi Nakamura & NAP have created a lovely addition to the area. Great work.
