St John's Church, London (UK)

 “Why aren’t community spaces representing the diversity of our city?”

Introduction

The purpose of this scheme is to provide a contemporary design that does not overshadow St John’s Church’s artistic value, while also creating an oasis within the context of the site.

Approach

Within the step-down of the roof lies a familiar language of pitch and an opening of its front mouth toward the views of the site, while pinching the form at the rear.
