Florida Hospital Chapel
Orlando, Florida
This project for a hospital Chapel is unusual in the fact that the 18' tall x 21' wide wall of glass is curved. The window's design features a dynamic balance between the order of the grid, and the random, more abstract design elements inspired by wind and nature. These are rendered in thin graceful lines, creating a subtle balance between order and chaos. The window has an inherent meditative quality partly from this duality as well as from the visual distortion and effects provided by the use of European blown glass. The palette includes several different textures of clear glass, with the use of several greens rendered in German opal flashed glass which accentuates subtle variations in the light, changing throughout the day.
