Paulo Mendes da Rocha - Capela São Pedro - Campos do Jordão


The Chapel of Saint Peter in Campos do Jordão is located next to the Boa Vista Palace, the winter residence of the governor of Sao Paulo.
The architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha creates a sense of strength and simplicity through the use of materials like concrete, glass and steal. Religious spaces flow around a single massive column in the center. The glass-fronted two-story chapel overlooks the distant mountain peaks of Mantiquera.
