make your own.

Seen from above, the roof makes a field of interlocking shapes. The long ridge meets the fan of the apse; diamonds repeat across the slates, and the surrounding grass sets their muted colours in relief. The churchyard gives the pattern a living edge.

In my words.

At Itchen Stoke I found that pattern could change the way I was looking. The labyrinth inside the church and the roof outside offer different journeys for the eye.

The roof is both shelter and ornament. Its purple and grey-green slates make a repeated diamond diaperwork, spreading over the building without losing the clarity of its shape.

Colour and light inside the polygonal apse.

Pattern at every scale.

The diamond slates are part of Henry Conybeare’s elaborate design. Seen beside the bellcote and its tracery, the roof’s broad geometry belongs to the same language of repeated forms and carefully drawn edges.
