架构师提供的文本描述。尽管B4的所有建筑都是像禅宗花园里的岩石一样设计的，但通过它的象征意义、规模和位置，它的田园元素与中央庭院和公共区域的开放内部是一致的。

Text description provided by the architects. Although all the buildings of the B4 macro-plot are designed «like rocks in a Zen garden», through its symbolism, its scale and position, the pastoral element is in keeping with the open interiority of the central courtyard and public areas.

为了加强它的战略作用，有必要找到一种令人难忘的雕塑形式，以断言它的奇异性和与其他简报在建筑上的突破。

To strengthen its strategic role, it was necessary to hit upon a memorable sculptural form so as to assert its singularity and architecturally break from other briefs.

 Floor Plan

这座建筑就像一个单一的锌封套和折叠的卷，围绕着中央露台旋转，这是一种将光线吸引到神圣空间中心的基质空洞。在它的金属封套下，这种连续的、类似折纸的系统覆盖了整个建筑，就像一个庇护所，即教堂、演讲室、会议室和家庭接待室。体积从船头垂直上升，在尖塔处变成尖顶。

The building is like a unitary zinc envelope and folded volumes that are rolled around a central patio, a matrix void that draws in light to the heart of the holy space. Under its metal envelope, this continuous, origami-like system covers the whole building like a shelter, i.e. the chapel, the oratory, meeting rooms and the family reception room. The volume rises vertically in an ascending movement from the prow and turns into a spire at the steeple.

外面的裂缝看上去就像信封里的泪水，在光线中吸引人，却使景色变柔和。大画窗为入口和门厅提供了更大的透明度，并似乎邀请人们进入这个和平的港湾。

The exterior slits look like tears in the envelope that draw in the light but soften the views. Large picture windows lend more generous transparency to the entrance and the foyer and seem to invite people into this peaceful haven.

虽然从公共区域看，礼拜堂看起来神秘而封闭，但里面的气氛完全是另外一回事。只要一个人进入祈祷和反思的地方，宁静的气氛就会令人惊讶，让人联想到森林地板的微弱光。这是由于遮挡在木板天花板上的天窗散落而成。

Although from the public area the chapel may look mysterious and closed, the atmosphere inside is something else entirely. As soon as one enters the place for prayer and reflection the atmosphere of serenity comes as a surprise, evoking a sense of the muted light of a forest floor. This is due to the scattering of skylights hidden by a wood-slat ceiling.

有什么比光具有表达圣洁和神秘的能力更不重要的呢？它的变化和范围是向那些知道如何看待它的人提供财富的来源。

What is more immaterial than light with its ability to express holiness and mystery? Its variations and ranges are a source of wealth offered to those who know how to see it.

-屋顶和尖塔是灰色的垂直墙是由钉好的锌隔板和相同的髌骨组成，以确保整个体积的连续性。

- The roofing and steeple are in gray-patina zinc with standing seams. The vertical walls are made of stapled zinc clapboard with the same patina so as to ensure full volume continuity.

-视其位置而定，窗框和开口的凹痕覆盖着反射退火不锈钢(以突出锌的无光泽与不锈钢的无形性之间的对比)、木材或香槟酒色漆铝。

- Depending on their locations, the indentations of the window frames and openings are clad in reflecting annealed stainless steel (to highlight the contrast between the matt of the zinc and the immateriality of the stainless steel), wood or champagne-colored lacquered aluminum.

我们利用这种对比和对立的材料来增强光的无限效应及其对材料的感知或修饰的影响。

We used this play of contrasts and opposing materials to enhance the infinite effects of light and its influence on the perception or modification of the materials.

-框架是灰色漆铝，但隐藏在正面，有时在落叶松为住房单位的木制品。

- The frames are in gray-lacquered aluminum but hidden behind the facing, sometimes in larch for the woodwork of the housing units.
