Cloud of Luster Wedding Chapel
Tetsuya Matsumoto
Architecture, Building and Structure Design Cloud of Luster Wedding Chapel by Tetsuya Matsumoto The Cloud of luster is a wedding chapel located inside a wedding ceremony hall in Himeji city, Japan.

The columns are toped in hyperbolic capital like heads smoothly connecting them to the minimalistic ceiling. The chapel socle on the basin side is a hyperbolic curve allowing the whole structure to appear as if it is floating on the water and accentuate its lightness.
