Rebirth: The Great Designer

Although Su Leqing successfully persuaded Mr. Lyle to renovate his wine estate, Su Leqing still needs to design the church before a professional surveying company finishes measuring the estate.

Regarding the design of the church, to be honest, Su Leqing didn't have any preliminary plans in mind, but judging from the information obtained from Mr. Lyle, first of all, the style of the building should not be too old, and it should not be the same as other churches in Weimar.

Secondly, the lighting needs to be good, otherwise Mr. Lyle will feel that it is too dark.

Finally, the area of ​​the church should not be too large, because Su Leqing plans to renovate the entire wine estate. If the church occupies too much area, he will plan that the layout of the entire wine estate should not be too high. If it is too high, it will block the wine estate. Light and sight, both for the view and for the grapes, are detrimental.

Su Leqing took a pencil and began to think about the design plan of the church. If you want to design this church, you must first have a bright spot, so that you can design the church according to this bright spot.

Obviously, this shining point must be found from the lighting.

After all, for Mr. Lyle, what he cares most about is the lighting of the church.

"Lighting! Light...light..." Su Leqing muttered, frowning tightly.

After thinking about it carefully, Su Leqing still didn't have any clue, and looked at the time, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

It seems that I can't think of any thoughts today.

Thinking of this, Su Leqing took a change of clothes and prepared to go to the bathroom to take a shower.

Opening the door, it was pitch black outside. It was obvious that the Werner family had already rested. Seeing this, Su Leqing hurried out of the door lightly.

But when Su Leqing inadvertently saw the shadow on the ground from the corner of his eyes, he was suddenly stunned, as if a flash of light flashed through his mind.

"This... light..." Su Leqing's eyes suddenly revealed a look of surprise, he seemed to have found the key point to break the game.

Thinking of this, Su Leqing ran into the bathroom, rinsed it casually with cold water, and hurried back to his room.

Then Su Leqing picked up the pencil in his hand and began to draw in his sketchbook.

Soon, a cross appeared on the paper, Su Leqing didn't stop, and continued to draw a few radiant rays around the cross,

to represent sunshine.

It looks like this cross is exuding an incomparably bright light.

And this is the shining point that Su Leqing wants to express.

When he opened the door just now, it happened that it was pitch black outside, and the lights in his room shone from inside, making his shadow longer. Maybe this seemed normal, but if Su Leqing was facing him at that time, it happened to be If there are people, they will be able to see Su Leqing as if bathed in light. If the light is stronger, the effect will be better.

And this is the breaking point that Su Leqing thought of.

As believers in Christianity, Mr. Lyle needs to pray in the church every day. If there is a transparent floor-to-ceiling window behind the cross where they pray, the scenery outside the window is picturesque and the mountains in the distance are undulating.

When praying, it is the time when the sun rises from the mountain. At the right time, the sun is shining brightly, and the sun like holy light also shines into the whole church from the floor-to-ceiling windows. All praying believers can bathe in the rising sun. , feel the holy light that God blesses all things, and also make the cross look more sacred.

In this way, Su Leqing can basically determine the direction of the church.

The door of the church faces west, while the direction of people's prayer is east.

Since Mr. Lyle wants enough lighting, there is no need for any strong points on the north and south sides, and doors are used instead. In this way, believers who come to pray can walk in through the west gate, and then pass through the sides of the north and south sides. Get out so you don't have to worry about being too crowded.

In order not to block the scenery and sunlight of the wine estate, the church cannot be too high.

Following Su Leqing's thoughts, the first plan soon took shape.

When Su Leqing saw his first plan, even he couldn't help laughing.

"Is this the first plan I designed?" Su Leqing looked at the plan on the drawing a little speechlessly.

This plan is similar to a hexagonal cone, with a floor-to-ceiling window on the east side and a cross placed beside the window, while the north, south and west sides are all glass doors, and the top is the unique spire of the church.

To be honest, although the starting point of this plan is very good, the building is really too ugly, even he himself feels blush when he looks at it, but fortunately no one sees that this is his design.

Su Leqing carefully looked at his own design plan. Although this plan is not very beautiful, the bright spots in it are very good. As long as the whole building looks more beautiful, it should be a very classic plan.

After carefully looking at his plan, Su Leqing found that the spire looked very abrupt.

After recalling for a while, Su Leqing discovered that the reason for designing this steeple is mainly because the steeple is basically the standard configuration of churches. Most churches have steeples, so Su Leqing designed this steeple.

Since the spire looks so abrupt and discordant, and Mr. Lyell needs a different church, why not remove the spire?

But even if the spire is cancelled, the shape of the church is still ugly.

How to make the building more beautiful while retaining this shining point?

Su Leqing frowned. If the spire was removed, the building he designed would be like an upside-down bowl on the ground, which is really not beautiful at all.

In order to shape the building, the first thing to change is the frame that constitutes the church.

Su Leqing tried to modify the straight line into a curved line. Slowly, with Su Leqing's modification, the plan improved, but it still couldn't reach the point where Su Leqing was satisfied.

The top of the church without the spire also looks a little flat, and it looks very mediocre.

"Since it's so flat, let's make it up and down." Su Leqing muttered to himself, and began to revise the plan with a pencil.

With Su Leqing's revisions bit by bit, the whole plan gradually changed.

The lines that were originally horizontal and vertical, all changed at this time, turning into curved and wavy lines.

And the whole plan has undergone earth-shaking changes.

If the previous plan was to build a square frame, then buckle it with a piece of cloth, and then open the door and window, then the current plan is to remove the square frame and make the whole cloth undulating, as if it is about to fly.

Viewed from the east and west, the building section is a 'W' shaped wavy line, and all bearing points are supported by the roof itself, because each wave falls significantly on the ground, and at each point of the roof structure The wave rises to a peak.

And this undulating architectural form echoes the undulating mountains in the distance, thus perfectly integrating into the entire wine estate.
