About Cloud of Luster Vestuvių Koplyčia
Blizgesio debesis yra vestuvių koplyčia, esanti vestuvių ceremonijų salėje Himeji mieste, Japonijoje. Dizainas bando šiuolaikinę vestuvių ceremonijos dvasią paversti fizine erdve. Koplyčia yra balta, debesies pavidalo, ištisai apjuosta išlenktu stiklu, atveriančia ją aplinkiniam sodui ir vandens baseinui. Kolonos yra viršuje, kaip didžioji dalis, kaip galvutės, sklandžiai jungiančios jas prie minimalistinių lubų. Koplyčios lizdas baseino pusėje yra hiperbolinė kreivė, leidžianti visai struktūrai atrodyti tarsi plūduriuojančiai ant vandens ir pabrėžti jos lengvumą.

- Production Technology
- The chapel is supported by a metallic frame structure. The foundations and the hyperbolic bases on the basin side are all made in reinforced concrete. All the white parts of the walls, columns, capitals, and ceiling are finished in an organic material called Joly-Pat produced by AICA. The capital like forms have a wooden base. And the floor was covered in glass beads coated in resin. The curved glass is 10mm thick and is supported by double 19mm thick clear glass fins.
- Design Challenge
- The simplicity of this design is a way to engrave a simpler image in the Peoples mind, with a focus on the newlywed couple. The organic shapes call for a more natural spirit and smoother life. No hard angles, no limit to the sky, a dreamy space where all can be possible. the second step was to find the best balance of shapes and dimensions and produce the whole image with respect to budget especially using curved glass and unconventional AC and lighting systems.
- Research
- The Cloud of Luster Chapel is a trial to materialize the spirit of Wedding day into physical space. the modern wedding ceremonies are all about white and bright colors, glittering materials and shiny reflections. However, weddings tend to be kitsch with overabundance of decoration and colors overcharging the image and making it more difficult to remember. The challenge was to create a Chapel that translates the wedding spirit into physical space.
- Inspiration
- The design for Cloud of Luster was inspired by the modern wedding ceremonies in Japan. These are all about the lightness, the brightness, and the smooth transition towards a happy future family life. The lines needed to be naturally curvy and the space needed to be open to receive as much light as possible. the columns needed to feel official as the ceremony is taking place and yet be as smooth and glamorous to spread the happiness of the moment.
- Project Duration
- Project start: December 2017.
Construction start: November 2018.
Project/Construction End: March 2019.
Location: Designed and constructed in Himeji City, Japan. - Operation Flow
- The outside approach connects the main ceremony hall building to the entrance of the chapel. This gives directly to the central aisle leading to the Atrium. This part is up lit through a glass floor. In the back, a semi closed space for the organ followed by the maintenance room where the air-conditioning and other pieces of machinery are placed. On the courtyard side the approach is elevated using steps like an Amphitheatre allowing to take group pictures on the sunny side of the court.
