Infinity Chapel
171, Macdougal Street, Manhattan, New York, NY, United States
STATUS
Built
YEAR
2010
SIZE
5000 sqft - 10,000 sqft
The Infinity Chapel for the Tenth Church of Christ, Scientist features a
cubic sanctuary deformed by light. The new sanctuary is a place where
the sacred geometries of squares, golden section rectangles, and
‘spheres of light’ will surround worshippers. Three curving walls - one
from the south, one from the north and one from the east - suggest the
large spheres. These forms evoke the shape of a ‘Klein bottle’ or
moebius strip, simple figures that suggest infinity by having no
beginning and no end.
In front of the sanctuary facing the street are the combined
lobby and Christian Science Reading Room, designed as an open, relaxed
space for study and conversation. Below this ground level are the
Sunday school and boardroom with borrowed natural light entering from
light monitors projecting through the first floor.
