Project overviewTraditional joinery, raised by hand.
An open-air chapel set among the trees. Heavy timber posts, beams and curved braces were cut and fitted with traditional joinery, then raised on site by hand.
Under a metal roof, the exposed rafters and tongue-and-groove ceiling keep the craftsmanship in view, with the woods visible on every side.
