架构师提供的文本描述。礼拜堂是一个社区空间，在一个新的城市病房，在胡志明市郊区，越南。由于房地产危机，周边地区缺乏社区中心；因此，礼拜堂被设计成供人们，特别是青年参加会议、婚礼、展览或享受清淡咖啡和点心等活动的场所。

Text description provided by the architects. The Chapel is a community space in a new urban ward on the outskirt of Hochiminh city, Vietnam. As the result of estate crisis, the surrounding area is lacking of communal centers; therefore, the Chapel is designed to be the place for people, especially the youth, to participate in activities such as conferences, weddings, exhibitions or enjoying a light coffee and snack.

位于一个10×20百万的土地租用10年，教堂采取的材料，从业主以前的项目，如钢框架，金属板…。此外，以钢为主要结构材料，不仅使地基更轻，而且缩短了施工周期，节约了成本。门式刚架由40×80钢柱和40x40钢支撑连接而成，从远处看，这座建筑就像一个白色的小礼拜堂。

Located in a 10x20m land rented in 10 years, The Chapel takes advantages of materials from the owner’s previous projects such as steel frames, metal sheets... Moreover, by using steel as the main structure material, it not only makes the foundation lighter, but also helps shorten the construction period than normal, and saving cost as well. The portal frame is made by dual 40×80 steel columns with 40x40 steel braces connecting to white painted metal sheets; so from a distance look, the building appears as a white chapel.

然而，可用的钢是不够强的；柱和梁被认为是稳定的整个建筑物。一个90x90钢筋的树形钢柱是唯一出现在教堂内的结构。这要么给教堂一个美学的外观，要么为不同的活动在地面上节省更多的空间。在里面，礼拜堂是由一片纯净的白色覆盖的单一空间。多层色彩缤纷的窗帘排列整齐，放置在打开处，为整个空间增添了更多的色彩，同时也软化了金属框架的寒冷性。除了自然的感觉之外，除了建筑周围花园的布局之外，木在其乡土的外观上也被应用于地板和家具。

However, the available steels are not strong enough; columns and beams are considered to stabilize for the entire building. A tree shaped steel column with 90x90 steel bars is applied to be the only structure that appears inside the Chapel. This either gives an aesthetic look to the Chapel or saves more space on the ground for different activities. Inside, the chapel is the single space covered by a pure white. The multi-layer colorful curtains are orderly arranged and placed in the opens to add more colors to the entire space as well as soften the coldness of the metal frames. In addition to nature feelings, wood in its rustic look are also applied for floor and furniture besides the layouts of gardens around the building.

最后，礼拜堂是一个社区空间，为年轻人在一个新的城市地区。为了适应多种操作和短期租金的处理，采用了单树形柱支撑的钢门式刚架。此外，彩色窗帘和天然材料是用来提升整个空间。

Finally, the Chapel is a community space for the youth in a new urban area. In order to adapt multiple operations and deal with short term rent, a steel portal frame supported by a single tree shaped column is employed. Additionally, colorful curtains and natural materials are used to boost the entire space.
