The design for the new 1916 Centenary Chapel at Glasnevin Cemetery aims to provide for both a contemplative space to remember the recently deceased, but also to offer a public space of meditation and hope.
The chapel´s appearance is displayed in the form of a monolithic cube, leaned towards the arriving visitors and the graves of the cemetery, and creating a strong presence.
The carillon on the eastern part of the roof induces a soft and peaceful acoustic sound frame through the cemetery, when the wind sweeps over the roof in direction of the graves.
The introverted patio is composed as a peaceful space, framed by floral-perforated concrete walls, a bench and a tree symbolizing life and hope. The main chapel room (temple space) is located in a round-shaped dome, within the highest part of the building.
The facades of the Glasnevin Chapel are of exposed concrete. To demonstrate the interlude of durability and transience, the concrete walls have a floral, relief-like structured surface.
Ein berstend voller Schuhschrank und dessen Dilemma der Zusammenführung einer platzsparenden Lösung sowie dem Wunsch den freien Blick auf eine Vielzahl von gesammelten Sneaker Raritäten zu ermöglichen, führten zu einer Lösung, die aus der Straßenkultur inspiriert ist und eine Möglichkeit bietet die Schuhe als Ausstellungsobjekte in Szene zu setzen.
Die Sneaker-Kollektion eines privaten Sammlers, ist im Eingangsbereich einer Wohnung ausgehängt. Während die mit einem weichen Material bespannte vorgehängte Wand indirekt den Raum belichtet, scheint sie vor der tragenden Wand zu schweben. Der davor hängende Kettenvorhang, der durch sein raues Aussehen aus der Straßenkultur inspiriert ist, dient als Hängemöglichkeit für die ausgestellten Sneaker, und ist im Konglomerat mit der Kollektion Teil der Ausstellungsstrategie.
A bursting shoe closet and its dilemma of combining a space-saving Solution with the wish to reveal the view to a large number of collected Sneakers, led to a solution not only inspired in street culture, but also offers the possibility to display the collected Sneakers.
The Sneaker Collection of a private Collector, covers a wall in the entrance of an apartment. The soft-covered wall that illuminates the room with an indirect light aims to fly in front of the structural wall. The prior hanging chains, with their rough appearance, tribute to street culture while the delicate details of the wall are framing the compilation of sneakers as a part of an exhibition strategy.
