Here is an Example of Assignment 1!




The Class of 1959 Chapel was designed by Moshe Safdie in 1992. It exists on the Harvard Business School campus, Boston, Mass. The Chapel is a soothing sanctuary that holds non-denominational services, celebrations, and concerts. Identified by its cylindrical main building and adjacent glass pyramid with tiered garden, the Chapel also houses an intricately designed pond and is a popular spot for students seeking a moment of solitude and quiet. Throughout the year, free music concerts are performed here for the HBS community. It does not get much traffic, and in fact functions as it was intended - a quiet place on the campus for reflection. Many times students go here to read or to sit in the sun. It is a place that I like very much because it brings the outdoors inside with the plants and water.
