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
