The lighting concept uses direct, directional light to zone the sanctuary area and to accentuate the main focal points such as pulpit and crucifix. To do this, spotlights were fixed to the steel construction of the skylight. The other component of the concept consists of the uniform illumination of the interior of the arched concrete shell with spotlights and floodlights fitted above the skylights.
