WATCH: Ribbon Chapel

WORDS Michaela Stehr VIDEO Matthew Allard ACS on Vimeo


Designed by Hiroshi Nakamura, the Ribbon Chapel consists of striking double spiral stairways, referencing the union of marriage.

The dual stairwells intertwine in opposite directions around the face of the building forming one single structure. Inside, there is seating for 80 guests and glass is used to create an indoor-outdoor feel.

An observation deck elevated at 15.4 metres provides panoramic views of the coast.
