LIGHT
Purpose:
We have been selected to design a proposed
non-denominational chapel for the Farmingdale State
College Campus. The building will be a profoundly spiritual
place that people of all faiths can worship and reflect of life's events.
We are to choose the site of the building, design a building that is well integrated
into the fabric of the campus. We are to include a Main Sanctuary for 50 people, a Memorial
Chapel, and a Meditation Chapel. The Focus of the design is based on the creative use of lights.

Final selection of site location was determined by located public space using formal vs informal. The front of the building is placed on a formal space. It connects to the rest of the formal circle that is close to major circulation path which connects major student life buildings. Back of building allow easy access to parking. Building is also placed away from other buildings to allow for full sunlight throughout the day.
