The interior of the Church of San Giovanni Battista in Mogno, SWITZERLAND

Chiesa di Mogno Val Lavizzara Canton Ticino Svizzera

MARIO BOTTA, San Giovanni Battista, Mogno, Switzerland, 1992-98

Inside the church San Giovanni Battista in #Mogno, #Switzerland, design by Mario Botta architects, built 1992-1996. This church replaced the old one which was destroyed by an avalanche in 1986. “Surfaces once again in the decided inclined ‘cut’ of the outer walls which compress the internal space and force it to expand towards the sky by way of the roof-cum-skylight. The subtle dualism between the levity of the roofing and the strength and thickness of the building, completely new compared to the consistency of a traditional stone roof, testify to the desire for survival on the part of the construction.” Mario Botta Architect: @mariobottaarchitetti_official Location: Mogno, Switzerland Photo by: @serendella Post by: @hamithz & @pa.next ——————————————————————— * Submit your project to publish on PA (+595K) * Turn ON Post Notifications to see new content * Instagram 👉🏼 instagram.com/parametric.architecture * Linkedin: 👉🏼 linkedin.com/company/parametric.architecture * Website: 👉🏼 www.parametric-architecture.com * Facebook: 👉🏼 facebook.com/parametric.archi * Pinterest: 👉🏼 pinterest.com/parametricarchitecture * YouTube: 👉🏼 youtube.com/parametricarchitecture * Twitter: 👉🏼 twitter.com/parametricarch ——————————————————————— #church #churchdesign #mariobotta #churches #churchesoftheworld #interior #interiordesign #interiordesigner #art #contemporary #layers #lines #stone #sontes #stonework #stoneworks #digitalfabrication #fabricate #digitaldesign #design #designer #parametric #grasshopper3d #rhinoceros3d #parametricarchitecture #parametricdesign #architecture #architect (at Church of San Giovanni Battista, Mogno) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDOQN0yJe32/?igshid=1j4maxs8bu0py
