CATHOLIC PROVOST PARISH CHURCH PROPOSAL
BRIEF The
new building of a church, including a community center, for the Leipzig Provost
Parish Church | ADDED VALUEWhile normally the interior space of the sacred halls
is considered remarkable because of its peculiar atmosphere, here the unusual
roof and its light effects – as well as the church itself and the church square
with its marked urban surroundings – become especially spiritually charged.ST. TRINITATIS, LEIPZIG | GERMANY It
yields a site of encounter that encourages dialogue and provides an “added
value” to the notion of faith and belief.
The two-part building ensemble leans like an arch into
the northern edge of the lot located along the Ring Street (Ringstrasse),
creating thereby an intimate yet spacious forecourt to the church with the
planned building on Nonnenmühl Lane (Nonnenmühlgasse) to the south. On the one
hand, this square remains the forum of the community while offering, on the
other hand, a public refuge with ideological “added value.” The overarching concept of the design is to bring the
church, the community center, and the open-air forum under one common roof that
provides an establishing identity. The funnel-shaped roof dips into the church
itself. Like a horizontal church stained-glass window, its translucent panels
generate reflections in the liturgical colors red, green, blue, violet, and
pink, into the interior of the church as well as on the façade of the parish
center and the square.
