Agri Chapel is located within a national park on Kyushu island in Japan, so it only makes sense that architect Yu Momoeda would look to the surrounding forest for inspiration. Just look up and around to see its influence!
You’ll notice how modern abstractionist Francisca Sutil‘s work has changes over the past decades when looking through her portfolio.
