In The Works: Forest Temple

Exterior render of Forest Temple

The forest temple is a nondenominational meditative space nestled within Canadian woodlands in Caledon, Ontario. Nourished by the life, light, and sounds of the forest, the temple emerges in the wood to offer a gathering space.

Interior render of the Forest Temple

The funnel-like roof structure siphons natural daylight, that otherwise trickles through neighbouring tree branches, and illuminates the interior of the temple, connecting the earth to the sky. This fractal nest is modelled after a bird’s nest, channelling a similar sense of belonging, rest, and relaxation.
