Monastery of the Immaculate Heart of Mary  |  Westfield, VT

This cloistered Benedictine monastery follows the strict design guidelines set forth by the Benedictine order. The direct use of natural finishes such as brick, stone and wood is applied throughout to achieve durable and honest surfaces within a stringent budget. The project’s configuration relates directly to the sweeping vista associated with its placement in the landscape while also providing a context appropriate for reflection.
