Ronchamp Chapel

The design work of Ronchamp Chapel shows the conceptual transformation of contemporary Chinese sculpture to architecture. In the process of its efforts to transform and escape the shackles of historical style, architecture and other visual arts share an abstract journey. Through continuous practice and application, it breaks through traditional forms and incorporates new concepts and new designs into architectural design. He advocates the pure connotation and spirit through the abstraction of pure geometric figures, abandons any form of specific elements, opposes the pursuit of particularity, does not support individuality, and is fully committed to the performance of the pure spiritual field common to mankind. Therefore, based on the geometric shape without any specific elements, combined with abstract lines and basic simple color methods, it formed a unique expression content.

The building perfectly demonstrates the three-dimensional transformation of paintings. It is not difficult to find the most concise geometric basic elements applied in the building through the observation of the appearance of the building, as well as the horizontal and vertical lines together.


The space of Ronchamp Church has very distinctive female characteristics. Professor Samuel pointed out that the design of the Ronchamp chapel implied the statement that “the voice of God conceived her through Mary’s ear” 12. Therefore, the process that the light enters from the side window on the tower, is rendered by the red inner wall and enters the interior of the church has a spiritual meaning.
