La Chapelle / VISUAL IDENTITY

Renewed Serenity: The Visual Identity of a Reinvented Chapel

––––––––––––

The historic Sainte-Odile chapel in Wintzenheim, Alsace, is to be rehabilitated. Designed by the architect Joseph Muller in 1963, The Chapel (La Chapelle) will be transformed into a place of worship for the Assembly of God evangelical church (Assemblée de Dieu). The renovations, estimated at 450,000 euros, would create a welcoming and accessible space of 800 square meters, with the capacity to accommodate close to 500 individuals.

Project Objectives:
Establish a distinctive visual identity that reflects the architecture and the values of openness and exchange.
Conduct an engaging fundraising campaign to finance the extension of The Chapel (La Chapelle).
Communicate effectively about the project to generate excitement for the reopening.
