Perched on a hilltop, this chapel is a fantastic study of architecture as sculpture. The concrete walls are prow-like and the roof resembles an inverted crab shell. Le Corbusier wrote of the chapel, "the key is the light, and the light clarifies the forms." Criticized as a shocking piece of irreverence by the disciples of strict modernism, the chapel was a highly personal work for Le Corbuiser that allowed for emotion, rather than banishing it. Gentle light descends onto three altars from hidden skylights.
