Well, this is certainly an interesting design for a chapel. The Kamppi Chapel of Silence, designed by Finnish studio K2S Architects, is a small wooden tub of a structure supplying a bit of silence and peace from its urban surroundings in Helsinki’s commercial center. The wood tones in this sculptural volume exude a natural warmth which is only amplified by the indirect sunlight that enters through the top.
