Green architecture has now really becoming a focus not only to modern houses and elegant architecture but also with the religious architecture as well. The Field Chapel is a wonderful retreat house built by the student from IITCA or Illinois Institute of Technology College of Architecture together with Ecker Architekten. The structure was entirely made from recycled materials that include locally sourced woods that as sustainably harvested for the benefit of the environment. Hikers and cyclist alike are invited to have a stop and do some reflection in this quiet and calm place offered by the 9-meter high structure. The student uses a CNC machine to cut the woods to minimize waste.
