Charles Correa. Salvacao Church. Dadar, Bombay, 1977. URL: https://lnkd.in/dwMGtYT The design of this church in the Dadar neighbourhood of Bombay commenced in 1974 and the work completed in 1977. The church consists of a series of interlocking courtyards and covered spaces which allows any of the functions to take place indoors or outdoors depending on the weather. The covered spaces are caped by giant concrete shells (the "canons" of earlier works) which act as flues for the rising hot air. All the areas, both indoor and outdoor, interconnect so that the spaces - and the breezes - flow across the site. . . . . #architecture #thechurch #christianchurches #thearchitect #thedesign #tenyears #thelife #finalsacrifice #straightlines #publiclife #thetabernacle #theplan #series #building #walls #used #worship #create #site #enlightenment #basics #indianarchitecture #baptism #based #brick #adapted #expression #conditions #indianarchitects #architect
