New building in the Classical tradition

Winner
A private Catholic Chapel in the North of Britain

Client
Black Mountains Farms

Architect
Craig Hamilton

This chapel adjoins a house that Craig Hamilton designed and is a tour de force of contemporary ecclesiastical design and an exciting fusion of art and architecture. It takes the form of a small Italian chapel, with the west façade enlivened by Michaelangelesque detailing and a bronze bust of St Rita by Alexander Stoddart, who will also be producing life-size figures of St Augustine and St Nicholas. The commission included the design of almost all the interior fittings including the silver communion set, the tabernacle, the altar, the pews, the font, the consecration candelabra, the priest’s chair and the organ.        

Commended
The summerhouse at Langton Park, New Alresford, Hampshire; Woodlands Crescent, Poundbury, Dorset
