The traditional plan configuration of a church nave (blue) surrounded by chapels (yellow) for example in San Lorenzo above has been transformed in this project below into a church nave (blue) surrounded by cinema screens (yellow).

  
to reduce the severity of the cantilevers some of the footings have been amended.

also to make more rational load paths for some of the spans the internal volumes of the cinemas have been manipulated.

here is the base 3dmodel with these amendments (finally with previous configuration)

sections taken at the moment of the Sunday  morning pre-mass screening spectacular.

this is the weekly moment that the screen each for Elijah et al come into their element.

(I just remembered..  there is a simple spot the difference with the sections between these and the other format. not the omission of a plan, addition of the film stills or size of images)

with clearer plan and dimensions

these split lines are going to be integrated with the sections
