Summary
| Description | View from above of east elevation of Church Army Chapel, Blackheath, London, England. Built 1965. From this angle you can see how the hyperbolic paraboloid part of the roof ends in the top sections of the north and south buttresses. The buttresses then extend the roof shape in sculptural form to the ground, so that the roof is supported and stabilised at the four corners by the buttresses and by the east and west brick piles. Thus the roof and the two end piles together form both the frame for the building, and a stabilised support for the spire (now missing in 2009). Photographed through glass. The picture is spoilt by the reflection, but is too useful to discard. |
