Northern Lights Cathedral Alta Norway

Eight days in Alta during February allowed us to see the many dramatic ways that this very modern cathedral played with light, both inside and out. It's titanium tiled exterior and unorthodox shape belie the fact that this is a place of worship. The interior is equally stunning with its millions of miniature end grained wooden floor blocks, its dramatic use of vertical wall lights that take your eyes away from it's concrete construction and the complimentary use of pale wooden furniture and stainless steel fittings just go to accentuate the care and detail that have gone into making this a very beautiful place of worship. No description or video can capture the tranquility and awe that you experience as you sit quietly in this amazing 'space bubble'.

Very beautiful. I wish there were more color or interesting things on the inside though
