Built in a residential setting, the Saint-Joseph Church comprises a space of worship, a parish center, and a residence. The building is both simple and distinctive, characterized by its imposing narthex and the monumental stained glass window designed biy artist Thierry Boissel.

This is the centerpiece of the project, it is made up of six-meter-long glass blades, hand-painted to create a symphony of color and light.
