Shortlisted Project:
St. George's & St. Thomas's Church Insertion
Project: St. George's & St. Thomas's Church Insertion
Architect: Clancy Moore Architects
The project builds itself about the entrance to the church. The form is manipulated such that the intervention recedes from those entering the church, drawing them into the plan before becoming readable as an addition. The resultant poché between this entrance sequence and the fabric of the church is hollowed out to provide the required accommodation. These rooms are insulated and lined in cork to allow for their use separate to the main body of the church.
