Interfaith Chapel of Peace

Design Theme Description

The project is a community museum.  The theme of the collection is up to each student. It might be art, history, environmental, commemorative or another topic meaningful to the community selected. The theme should be articulated in each student’s project description. The students should strive to create a sense of community through the theme and develop a space that will be responsive to the requirements of the exhibit materials through light and scale and include a relationship with nature through the integration of an outdoor space. Designs should demonstrate a responsible relationship with the environment through the use of sustainable and recycled materials and alternative energy sources.
