Church for the deaf
Description
The deaf church is an important part of the deaf community in Norway. A place for deaf and hearing impaired with their families to meet each other. Only three of the eight deaf churches are designed specifically as deaf churches, the newest one built in 1989. A lot has changed since then, and it’s important that deaf and hearing impaired have a place to gather that is designed for their need.Using the DeafSpace concepts as guidelines, I wanted to create a deaf church that can adapt to different spatial needs and still be a good space for deaf and hearing impaired. Looking at the qualities that comes from designing for the deaf instead of viewing their needs as extra work. And how these qualities can benefit others.REMEMBER TO PROOF READ :)
