Atheistic Typology by Kacper Chmielewski
A place of reflection and a moment of solitude.

According to statistics, it is estimated that in year 2040, there will only be 1% of Anglicans left in the total population of Britain, Within the fifty odd churches in London, a majority of them have already been converted into commercial coffee shops. In the long run, whether architecturally or community-wise, it seems that the space is losing its initial identity and becoming a depressing waste.

Design graduate Kacper Chmielewski from The Bartlett School of Architecture is the mastermind behind the design of Atheistic Typology, which is a concept that integrates nature and science to help create a simple, minimalistic and solemn place. Not only can it aid the current problem of wasted space, it can also provide atheists with a place to feel moments of peace, readying their bodies to meditate and to reflect on the associations that they have with nature and the universe.

The frontal surface of this huge building will be built with 39, 999 blocks of marble casted with gold trim, and it will have a roof terrace as well as an auditorium capable for holding different large gatherings. In addition, it will also accommodate the headquarter and library of British Humanist Association, which is a non-profit organization established for non-religious people. With the sight of white oaks everywhere, the core of this architecture will grow with the years and witness the passage of time. Even though it is still in its conceptual stage, it has already brought an impact and an innovative concept to the architectural industry.
