这个小礼拜堂是在1984年的一场雪崩之后在Sumvitg村建造的，这场雪崩摧毁了该村的巴洛克风格的小礼拜堂。这座新教堂位于山坡上，可以看到令人叹为观止的山景，周围的森林保护着它不受未来雪崩的侵袭。

The chapel was constructed in the small village of Sumvitg following a 1984 avalanche that destroyed the baroque-style chapel of the village. The hillside site for the new chapel, which provides breathtaking mountainous views, is protected from future avalanches by a surrounding forest.

在接受“纽约时报”采访时，Zumthor曾解释过他的过程：“当我开始的时候，我对建筑的第一个想法是用材料。我相信建筑是关于这个的。它不是关于纸的，它不是关于形式的。它是关于空间和材料的。”

In an interview with The New York Times, Zumthor once explained his process: "When I start, my first idea for a building is with the material. I believe architecture is about that. It's not about paper, it's not about forms. It's about space and material.” [1]

虽然zumthor使用了现代材料和技术来进行这种特殊的设计，但圆筒形的小教堂自然地融入了它的环境，并没有冒犯到阿尔卑斯山村庄的传统和历史层面。例如，礼拜堂是用木瓦和剪刀建造的，类似于当地的传统房屋。

Although Zumthor used modern materials and techniques for this particular design, the cylindar-shaped chapel blends naturally into its context, without offending the traditional and historical dimension of the Alpine village. For example, the chapel is constructed with wooden shingles and snips, similar to the local traditional houses.

教堂的屋顶让人想起一艘船的船体。在富有表现力的屋顶和下面更为传统的木制底座之间，是一种优雅的、最小的解决方案：一个竖直的木柱和玻璃面板组成的环，使礼拜堂顶上，让自然光穿透室内空间。

The roof of the chapel is reminiscent of the hull of a boat. Mediating between the expressive roof and the more traditional, wooden base below, is an elegant, minimal solution: a ring of vertical wood columns and glass panels that crown the chapel, allowing natural light to penetrate the interior space.

单一的室内空间包含极简木柱，梁和长凳，展示了祖莫的工艺和他对材料和细节的微妙方法。

The single interior space contains minimalist wooden columns, beams and benches, showcasing Zumthor’s craftsmanship and his delicate approach to material and details.
