This is a building no one can forget when they see it. It stands quietly in the small town of Qingdao Zangma Mountain, which is beautiful and pure. The white body complements the green hills and cypresses of the surrounding environment. The layers of texture on the surface of the building are superimposed, as if time, space, and building are divided, independent and continuous. This is a breathing building. The gaps reveal the activities of the people inside the church, making the definition of the inside and outside of the church ambiguous.
What should the light here be like? It should be "divine". We chose 4000K white light to express it. The lamps are arranged between the divided boards, and the appropriate power and angle of the lamps will illuminate each layer of the board. It is the only church in the world that glows all over! We chose warm yellow to describe the entrance and spire that people pass by. It makes the church look more "warm of human nature." At the same time, it also makes the light of the building richer and more layered.
The light on the spire of the church is the brightest. This stroke is a focus of sacred temperament, showing the direction of architecture to divinity. The light on the facade is divided into these three main layers. They use different intensities and colors to play their respective roles. The church is hidden in Zangma Mountain. There is a beautiful legend about the origin of the name "Zangma Mountain". Between the boards, in addition to the up-lighting underground lights, there are also linear lamps. In this way, the shape of the arc has been portrayed more accurately.
There is a quiet water surface around the church, and the reflection of the church appears on the water surface. The interior of the church continues the curved shape. We simulate the illuminance relationship of the space through illuminance calculation. We created a natural color change effect on the stairs. It is half-hidden in the woods, and it has become a holy place for the new couple, witnessing the wedding ceremony one after another.
