The Morning Chapel / Flores & Prats
An island.To be on an island and then inside a garden, allows a state of being where one's mind can drift to a peaceful place of reflection. The garden in San Giorgio has a fan structure of walks, starting from Palladio's Cloister towards the Lagoon. The Morning Chapel is along one of these long paths, and sits right before this walking line meets the water.
