架构师提供的文本描述。在“黑色星期六”期间，维多利亚丛林大火中，库德通过ABC广播电台广播了为重建圣公会和天主教教堂提供服务的邀请。圣玛丽金湖教堂对我们的邀请作出了回应，我们高兴地宣布，教堂于2010年12月完工。

Text description provided by the architects. During the ‘Black Saturday’ Victorian bush fires KUD broadcasted an invitation to donate services for the reconstruction of the fire effected Anglican and Catholic Churches via ABC radio. The St Mary’s Kinglake Church responded to our invitation and we are pleased to announce that the church was completed in December 2010.

这座建筑本质上是三个相互关联的空间，隐喻地象征着神圣的三位一体，这些三位一体被战略性地安排起来，以捕捉美丽的周边景观。主礼拜堂位于东西向，南面的玻璃墙将金湖山谷作为室内空间的背景。一排突出的窗户向东，过滤上午的太阳进入双高度的空间，在质量，也提供太阳能增益的空间。

The building is essentially three interlocking volumes that metaphorically symbolise the holy trinity which are strategically arranged to capture the views of the beautiful surrounding landscape. The main chapel is orientated in an east west direction with a southern wall of glass that incorporates the Kinglake valleys as a backdrop to the interior space. A bank of highlight windows to the east filters the morning sun into the double height space during mass and also provides solar gain to the space.

我们加入了反光镜面玻璃，使内部空间保持隐私，同时将景观反射到建筑上，并在一个绿色的填埋场中提供了城市材料的鲜明对比。

We incorporated a reflective mirrored glass so that the internal space maintains privacy and simultaneously reflects the landscape onto the building and provides a striking contrast of urban materials in a green fill site.

当车辆从主干道经过拐弯处驶入金湖时，这个两层楼高、色彩鲜艳的大十字架是第一个可以在绿色环境中看到的物体。晚上，大楼消失在黑暗中，一个发光的十字架漂浮在金湖的黑暗中。

As vehicles approach around the bend from the main road into Kinglake, the large two storey colourful cross is the first object that can be seen sitting in the green surroundings. At night the building disappears onto the darkness and a glowing cross floats in the darkness of Kinglake.
