Architectural idea is based on the church building 
traditions and the image of the ceremonial order 
concept. Simple but very expressive, easily recognizable 
shape reflects the sacred building typology, creates 
modern, contemporary stylistic expression. Minimalist 
composition consists of the main volume of the tower 
and a single connection, emphasizes the vertical take-
off idea, elegant facade proportions. The plan consists 
of 
two cross-shaped side volumes. There are additionally 
designed four smaller chapels - niches.
