Whitefriars Hall
A smaller version of Whitefriars I, this addition consists of a new
chapel, dining room and living room arranged around a cloister that
creates a perceivable and useable private outdoor space as the central
element organizing the entire complex.
As in Whitefriars I, the chapel overlooks a small, raised garden
containing a free-standing cross. Compositionally, it is developed from a
cube that has two of its corners clipped off, rotating its axis 45
degrees. The remaining two corners rise to their full height,
terminating this axis and providing concealed clerestories at either
side of the main, peaked ceiling space that appears to float between
them.
The dining room is located at the lower level of the sloping site. It
is entered at the upper level in the attic-like zone of the exposed
wood trusses that frame the space and support a continuous monitor at
the ridge of the roof.
