St. Mary’s Cathedral Tokyo
Kenzo Tange
- Outline
- The eight HP shells are paired in pairs to form a looming wall of poured concrete. The upper edge of the shell becomes a cross-shaped skylight, and its edge becomes a slit that divides the two walls. Light shines through the marble fitted into a crack in the wall at the back of the altar from the rear of the altar. Collaboration with Yoshikatsu Tsuboi (Structure).
