The Luce Chapel in last winter
Introduction
The Luce Memorial Chapel (Chinese: 路思義教堂) is a Christian chapel on the campus of Tunghai University in Xitun District, Taichung, Taiwan. It was designed by the firm of noted architect I. M. Pei ( 貝聿銘), who was also responsible for the master plan and the early development of the campus of Tunghai University, with likely participation by architects Chi-kuan Chen (Chinese: 陳其寬) and Chao-kang Chang (Chinese: 張肇康).
The chapel is located on a 3-acre zone in the center of campus, and is set on an irregular hexagonal base, providing 477 m² of gross floor area, including the 245 m² nave (with 500 seats), 81 m² chancel, and 44 m² robing rooms. The church itself is a tent-like conoid structure, with four warped leaves rising to 19.2 m high, establishing itself as a central landmark on campus.
