The new Church will be built on the territories of Aquila's earthquake, and will be built by following the precepts of ecclesiastical dictated by local bishopric.
It will be clean, simple and massive, that conveys strength and security; with a clear reference to the style of the Romanesque churches and the concept of "church as the fortress of God", the new Church will be composed of pure regulars volumes, with a light from above rather than from the sides (like prefers the classic style) that irradiate the surrounding environments.
This work will also include a votive chapel in the basement, for the celebrations of para - religious functions, with a particular devotion to the event of earthquake, hosting inside a " wailing wall " of the victims.
