Descrizione del progetto
Following the design and completion of the Christ’s Resurrection Church in Sesto San Giovanni in 2010, Cino Zucchi Architetti was asked to design the sacred furnitures for the religious functions of the church.
The CZA team engaged the design—from concept to execution—of five specific elements to be placed in the Presbytery and another designated area. These elements comprise the altar with a predella, the ambo, the Eucharistic custodian, the celebrant’s seat, and the baptismal font. Characterized by clean and understated forms, enriched by niches and curves. These features, combined with the juxtaposition of materials such as stone, metal, and wood, ensure overall uniformity while preserving the distinct essence of each one
The Altar is conceived as a monolithic element featuring four niches, positioned on each front and designed in elevation as arches with a lowered profile. The chosen material is a reconstituted stone terrazzo in light tones and fine grain, creating the impression of a cohesive and seamless element in its continuity.
The Eucharistic custodian stands on its stone pedestal designed similarly to the altar and ambo. Atop this pedestal emerges another component, crafted from the same material, characterized by a circular plan and a hollow interior to house the Eucharistic offering. Crowned with a metal cross, this symmetrical shape includes an openable cover made of polished brass with a gilded finish and subtle surface detailing.”
The Ambo, also crafted from reconstituted stone terrazzo in light tones, adopts the shape of a freestanding stele situated at the left corner of the Presbytery; two niches carved into the corners of the volume contribute to refine the object’s silhouette, creating an impression of an element extending towards the central nave.
The celebrant’s seat is conceived as a cubic volume internally excavated to form the seating area. The structure is crafted from reconstituted stone terrazzo, while the part accommodating the celebrant is clad in a light oak wood.
The Baptismal Font is the only element that, due to its nature, resides outside the confines of the Presbytery; it is situated adjacent to the large window by the church’s main entrance. The Font features a terrazzo pedestal with a circular section and a metal element outlining the basin’s perimeter to hold the consecrated water; this metal element is crafted from turned copper sheet with a polished, gilded finish.
