The playfully indented south wall 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
The depth of the thickness at the base of the wall is 12.1 from which it tapers to 4.7 feet. Spatially, my wife Erma, standing within the indent gives perhaps a more vivid sense of spatial relationships.

Relationship of entry to the magical south wall 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
Just inside the door is a tapered cylinder for holy water, the intention of which is to always remind one of one's baptism. To the left are the portals for the deeply recessed windows.

The interior of Notre Dame du Haut 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
In the foreground, one senses the uneven stone work of a sloping floor. To the side are pews which will seat fifty of the rooms capacity of two hundred. In front are the communion rails, on the slightly raised platform of ...

East wall with Virgin and votive candles 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
From this angle along the south wall, the disruptive floor to ceiling windows disappear and the sacral display of votive candles lead the eye upward to the small window with an image of the Virgin.

The color of the stained glass in the south wall 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
The stained glass of the playfully indented windows are photographed to achieve the proper perception of color.

Side chapel 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
Alongside the entrance at the base of one of the flanking towers is an altar for the side chapel. Its stark simplicity with the light from the clerestories and candle and stuccoed cylindrical walls lend an aura of sanctity ...

Three towers 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
Each of the three towers surmounts a small interior side chapel, the shape of which follows the half round of the tower. Note also the concrete "gargoyle" projecting from the roof to spout its water into a whimsical catchment.
Thumbnail

The south wall seen from the exterior 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
The curvilinear nature of the south wall also indicates how just on the other side of the projecting point, the floor to ceiling windows can illuminate the interior while being invisible from many angles within the church ...
Thumbnail

North wall and pulpit 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
Different angles produce new aspects of awareness where here we see the cantilevered stairs to the pulpit and the later addition of a rope/railing for the safety of the priest.

Notre Dame du Haut, 1953-1955 

Bruggink, Donald J. (Western Theological Seminary (Holland, Michigan), 1984)
Le Corbusier, architect. Built atop a hill and replacing a traditional church destroyed in World War II, Le Corbusier, known for architecture replete with straight lines and right angles, created this pilgrimage church ...
