the chapel was built within the site of hyatt regency osaka and it is mainly
used for wedding ceremonies. the 'ring' structural system is hung along
the perimeter of the chapel, which consists of truncated tetrahedrons made
of steel rings. from inside, one can see the rings only through layered fabrics
so that their presence is softly insinuated.
