This
commission is on behalf of the Corpus Christi
Catholic Church to design a chapel to house the
church’s extensive collection of Spanish
Colonial Paintings from the Cuzco School, and
to cater to the expanding Peruvian community in
Florida. The chapel’s design is inspired
by the design of the Colonial era church of Mary
Magdalene in Lima, Peru.

The church’s façade is classically
inspired and refers back to the Churriguresque
and Moorish styles frequently used in the Spanish
colonies. The Church’s interior shall be
adorned with four hand made wood and gold leaf
side altars which shall frame the paintings, and
a main altar as the centerpiece.
