架构师提供的文本描述。被选中的儿童村基金会是一个非营利性组织，致力于为残疾儿童和智障儿童创造一个家庭环境。基金会与我们联系，为他们的社区设计一个小礼拜堂，该教堂将在预算紧张的情况下建造，对岛上的极端气候条件作出反应，并与周围的热带景观相结合。

Text description provided by the architects. The Chosen Children Village Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to the creation of a home environment for physically and mentally challenged children. The Foundation approached us to design a chapel for their community that would be buildable within a tight budget, responsive to the extreme climatic conditions of the island, and integrated with the surrounding tropical landscape.

教堂是进入基金会校园的标志。它必须立即开放和可访问，并能够为安全起见而关闭。我们的反应是一个简单的展馆，由一个单一的线条，折叠回自己的计划。墙壁在环绕公共空间时弯曲和折叠，这不仅给内部带来了测量，在受限的场地上创造了一种膨胀感，也赋予了结构内在的抗侧能力。词汇来源于现浇混凝土的固有塑性.在墙的深度内，紧密间隔的桥墩被移动，以打开墙厚度内的缝隙。这些缝隙被填充一个双层混凝土面板，以便间接光可以进入。在外观上，这些结构元素创造了柱和神职人员的对位节奏，而在7米高的空间里，阴影则与天空的碎片相碰撞。

The Chapel marks the entry to the Foundation’s campus. It needed to be at once open and accessible, and capable of being closed for security. Our response is a simple pavilion created out of a single line that folds back on itself in plan. The walls bend and fold as they wrap the common space; this not only gives measure to the interior, creating a sense of expansiveness on a restricted site, it also gives the structure an intrinsic lateral resisting capacity. The vocabulary derives from inherent plasticity of cast-in-place concrete. Within the depth of the wall, the closely spaced piers are shifted in plan to open up gaps within the wall’s thickness. These gaps are infilled with a double-mitered concrete panel so that indirect light can enter. On the exterior, these structural elements create contrapuntal rhythm of columns and clerestories, while inside in the 7-meter high space, shadows play against fragments of the sky beyond.

CCV教堂是一个基本的建筑：一个简单的遮蔽的围护结构，由一种材料制成，并且对天气有孔。这座建筑没有暖通空调，也没有玻璃；随意的石头铺路(典型的城市公共空间)从外部一直延伸到内部。下雨的时候，水会流入地面，沿着地板排水。当大屏幕式枢轴门打开时，整个场地是统一的，发挥了前面的小广场和施工期间保存的大相思树的作用。在建筑有欢迎公众存在的同时，为礼拜创造了一个平静和集中的空间。

The CCV Chapel is an elemental building: a simple sheltered enclosure, made out of one material, and porous to the weather. The building has no HVAC and no glazing; the random stone paving (typical of urban public spaces), runs consistently from the exterior throughout the interior. When it rains, the water comes in and drains along the floor. When the large screen-like pivot doors are open the entire site is unified, bringing into play the small plaza in front and the large Acacia tree which was preserved during construction. A calm and focused space for worship is created at the same time as the building has a welcoming public presence.
