oh man, oh man, oh man!

Absolutely awesome! This is perhaps my new favorite building: Richard Meier's Jubilee (ahem, Catholic) Church, Rome Italy.

The white shell of this building was specially designed and engineered for this project to be self-cleaning so that it always remains pure and white.
Lookin' good even from the back.
Unfortunately the church was closed for siesta...so I couldn't check out the interior BUT apparently there is no interfering walls that interrupt the view through the building, and light just fills it during the day.

The modern church is kinda like the library at C of C.

But I'll bet it's nice on the inside!!

Hang in there.
