Temple, derived from the Latin word “templum”, signifies a sacred place. However, what are the characteristics that define the sacredness of a space? And what if it is of an ecumenical nature? There are plenty of questions, but answers are scarce. In the fact of this narrative, its establishment takes place in the bucolic territory of Aldeia, the metropolitan region of Recife. 


In the sensitive attempt to delineate that intangible from plural perspective, a strong volume of calligraphy emerges from the solid ground, ascending towards the sky. In explicit and intentional contrast with the lust Atlantic forest, two white hypotenuses attenuate a certain dichotomy between the sacred and the profane.


A shelter with a simple soul, devoid of doors, with the walls, and blue floor , welcomes everyone that overflows with shadows and truth in symbiosis with the structure. Everything reverberates, the rest is silence.

Templo do latim templum, significa local sagrado – mas quais as características que definem a sacralidade de um espaço? E se o mesmo for de caráter ecumênico? Sobram perguntas, faltam respostas. Diante dessa narrativa, sua implantação ocorre em um condomínio de lotes residenciais no território bucólico de Aldeia, região metropolitana de Recife.


Nessa sensível tentativa de traçar o intangível por uma ótica plural, aflora da terra firme um volume de caligrafia forte – ascendente ao céu. Em contraste explícito e proposital com a exuberante mata atlântica – duas hipotenusas brancas atenuam certa dicotomia entre o sagrado e o profano.


Um abrigo de alma simples, sem portas, com paredes brancas e chão azul – acolhe a todos experienciar um bordado de luz que desborda sombra e verdade em simbiose com a construção. Tudo reverbera, o resto é silêncio.
