Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe

Des Plaines, Illinois
The concept for the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe derives from four major factors. The history of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Secondly, the symbolism of Our Lady of Guadalupe plays a large role in the shape and form of the Shrine. Thirdly, classical Christian symbolism. Lastly, the atmosphere within the church should be designed as a place of worship and communal gathering. The Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe flows like a cape— creating a place of peace, security and one that embraces community.

Pedestrian Bridge

The proposed all-steel structural element consists of a programmable lighting system that is able to vary its hue at night. The parapet is entirely of tempered security glass, and lighting set within the wooden deck will illuminate the path, adding to the stage-set effect created by its surroundings.
