This church design is based on the idea of enclosed and concentrated thought. Its light source is zenithal, from skylights at the top of the structure. It is shaped like a sailing boat, without comers or sharp edges, and seeks to enclose a smoothly contoured space, as most suitable to establish a mental encounter with the Almighty. The whole project is in concrete; the formwork being of exceptional quality. Both its formal concept emd its external and internal aspects make this a notable design, that is outstanding in modem religious architecture.
