Chiesa San Giovanni in Bono
Religion · by Arrigo Arrighetti · 1968
via San Paolino 20, Milano, Italy
The church is conceived as both a religious building and an urban hinge within the neighborhood, positioned to be visible from surrounding open spaces. The interior is intentionally asymmetrical, pairing a rhomboid main hall with a smaller weekday chapel. A dramatic sail-like roof and a secondary ‘veil’ are tied together by a massive steel beam, creating a tent-like silhouette that changes with viewpoint. Concrete walls and steel elements support the roof while the liturgical furnishings and spatial staging reinforce the building’s civic presence.
