St. Aloysius Church, Phase I New Canaan, CT (1995) This was a complete renovation of a church built in 1967. After the interior was gutted, the southern portion including the sanctuary was completely re-designed and a new sanctuary, Blessed Sacrament Chapel, sacristies, vestibules and mechanical rooms were installed; existing pews were re-finished; floor re-surfaced; entire area re-painted and re-lit; all artwork was designed especially for this church.
The focus is on the central altarpiece consisting of a 12 by
19 foot high stained glass window in which is located a
two-sided tabernacle behind which is the Blessed Sacrament
Chapel. The central window depicts the sacrament of the Holy
Eucharist and the other six rose windows depict the other
sacraments.
"I then found myself returning again and again to this church and its sheer beauty was largely responsible for my doing so...It lifts my spirits every time I'm surrounded with such beauty." --Bob Saverine Credits
