Mall of churches (plan test)

| | Comments (1)
New direction for the plan, where the idea springs from literally cutting and pasting different church typologies within the spaces provided for retail shops. These typologies would be derived from the end of the nave or the apse area where most elaborated elements are found, and is the focal end of any church or chapel (where usually the service is held by the clergy/priests). Maintaining the boring exterior of malls and keeping the interiority aspect on full throttle would add to that camp or kitsch value tot he design. Almost acting like a temporary stage set.
