Church from Future

London studio DOS Architects has designed a catholic church as one would expect in a movie from future. The church should be build in the city of Lagos in Nigeria, Africa and be able to host up to 2000 people. The interior is covered by an aerodynamic skin divided into two parts - two waves, first one is smaller than the other one. The main entrance is situated in the bottom and the narrowest part and leads into a spectacular foyer, where a direct access to both two floors is located. Space assigned for prayers has been designed to fulfil needs of the congregation; not to be disturbed, to feel comfortable and relaxed, to have a view at the altar. Spectacular glass facades provide enough of natural lighting and accentuate the height of the building. Construction of the church should start in 2011.
