The church, Sanctuary Tunnel Garden, designed by the renowned local Indonesian firm RAD+ar, is located in a rural estate near Bogor.
It includes a private vacation villa and a prayer space, aiming to establish a deep yet subtle relationship between the architecture and the vast surrounding nature.
Inspired by the concept of “light and truth at the end of the tunnel,” this project explores how religious architecture can evolve by incorporating modernist influences into its spatial design while preserving its spiritual essence.
These interventions highlight the raw beauty of the original site, replacing or complementing the intricate ornamentation and natural materials traditionally associated with sacred spaces.
