This was a commercial project for the country's largest funeral furnishers consisting of a new operations centre for East and North London. The development includes office accommodation, stores, vehicle maintenance and mortuary facilities.

The centrepiece of the £1.6 million project is an ecumenical chapel, octagonal in form and built as a brick drum with a lead clad roof, oak lined internally.

The chapel was an interesting design challenge influenced both by commercial considerations and by the demands of various religious groups within a racially mixed community.

The drawing above is part of a sequence produced to illustrate the roof geometry to the client. These three dimensional studies were later developed to full working drawings for construction.
