Conceived as a humble sanctuary for the workers at the Thalawakele Tea Estate, the following Chapel is a design that prioritizes simplicity and functionality. Its open pavilion layout emphasizes durability with simple blockwork construction, white-washed walls, and polished cement flooring. Timber columns and Calicut roofing tiles add details that connect the Chapel to its natural surroundings, while a prominent aperture in the shape of a Cross symbolizes faith, creating a serene place of prayer amidst the tea estate's natural beauty.
