Beyond the Hall interior, with
its traditional tatami mats, the design exhibits a balanced
mixture of simple and complex in its materiality, structure,
and design. From the subtle interplay
of different flooring materials and the play of light through
the timberslats onto the tatami,
to the lively shape of the roof and its structure, the Foundation
Hall is a deceptively simple design that is a fitting home
for a Buddhist practice in the mountains of New Mexico. |
