High on the central tower, a tapered bronze
cross with a slender vulnerable-looking figure of Christ gives a
sense of reaching out to the world and to the city of Orlando at
the intersection of heaven and earth. Below the crucifix, three
pairs of abstract stained glass windows strengthen and enliven the
presence of the crucifix above and the building from the street.
The design is a metaphor for the Holy Trinity with similar patterns
based on the image of light, and three different color schemes experienced
as a whole from the outside and separately from the elevator lobbies
within.
In this project, Schickel Design Company has
created a fresh, authentic, artistic expression of the Catholic
identity of the Diocese of Orlando.
