fragmented concrete volumes form atmospheric skylights in meixner schluter wendt's church
Briefly

German architectural firm Meixner Schlüter Wendt designed the New St. Luke and St. Matthew Churches, expanding an existing site that includes a childcare facility and the Lukaskirche. The design integrates old and new structures, creating a spatial narrative that links community spaces—a childcare center, a parish hall, and an outer church. The outer church serves as a transitional space, designed to be open-ended. This project also features a church square, enhancing public connectivity and reinforcing the religious function in the urban setting.
The architectural composition of the new St. Luke and St. Matthew Churches integrates historical and modern elements, emphasizing a continuous development process.
The outer church's design symbolizes incompleteness and openness, showcasing a space that invites various interpretations and future possibilities.
