Appreciation towards XIN-YU WAN for providing the following description:

As a project to replace St. Stephen Cathedral in Vienna, the overallconcept is based on a fantasy about the architectural history of Vienna. That is to say: if Art Nouveau had had a greater influence and had lasted for a longer period in Vienna; if the articulated geometries not only work as ornaments or enclosure as is the case for the Secession, but also serves as real structure to hold the main parts of the building, what would a new cathedral be and what its sublime and magical effects.

This project is based on two kinds of elements and their respective mutations. The white elements, which combine to form both the soft curvilinear and the hard straight body. They are the main structure and first layer of the enclosure.The black elements are more of an organic nature and work as the second layer of enclosure on the outside and as floors inside. The contrast and transition between these elements give the project its unique character.

The circulations of the tourists and pilgrims are separated. At the same time, different interior space for these 2 groups of people are created. The main Nave is on the top of the building and a bigger square outside is created for the ceremony. The program inside the nave stays within the range a classic gothic cathedral offers, but the way how people enter the space and how the vision and visual impression changes when people move inside the cathedral becomes much more dynamic.

设计的整体构思基于对维也纳建筑史的一种想象，即：如果新艺术运动在维也纳持续更长时间或者有更深远影响；如果曲线纹样和有机几何体不仅仅作为装饰和表皮（如维也纳分离派会所），同时也作为支撑建筑的实体结构。那么在此想象的基础上，将产生如何一种更狂热的建筑风格来替代原有的坐落在维也纳市中心的哥特式教堂。

设计基于两种基本元素以及他们的变体。一是白色元素，这种元素结合了有机的曲线几何体与水晶状的几何体于一身，以曲线部分作为主要结构而晶体部分作为主要围护的逻辑互相组合，作为建筑的主体支撑结构和第一层围护结构。二是黑色元素，这种元素拥有更加自由的形态和逻辑，作为建筑外部的第二层围护结构和建筑内部的楼板与分割。设计在美学上以不同几何体的对比和过度作为使设计产生特殊气质的主要手段。

功能上，设计中游客和朝拜者互相的影响被降到最低，并在一定程度上保持独立。在教堂内部空间的设计中，保留了传统哥特教堂中的朝拜线路和主要朝向，然而中殿被整体置于顶层且教堂室外广场的面积随之增大，人们进入教堂的过程中的视觉体验以及具有不同氛围的空间之间的视觉联系将更加丰富有变化。

背景说明：

Overall form reference:  Car design from Gothical sci-fi moive, The League of Extraodrinary  Gentlemen. And the Secession as a symbol of Art Nouveau in Vienna

整体形式参考：汽车设计来自于哥特风格的科幻片LXG绅士联盟，建筑为新艺术运动期间的维也纳分离派会所，如今已成为新艺术运动在维也纳的标志。

Detail form reference: Contrast and transition in single and multiple layer.

服装与首饰作为形式细节参考：不同类型和风格几何体的对比与过度的美学，即光滑的人体皮肤与复杂的装饰纹样以及服装本身形式的过度。
