Txog Resurgence Dej Num Tseem Ceev: Tsev Teev Ntuj
Resurgence yog ib lub tsev teev ntuj tshiab hauv Altadena uas teb rau cov kev xav txog kev tsim kho dua tshiab tom qab hluav taws kub hav zoov. Qhov kev tsim qauv no siv cov roob puag ncig los ua tus qauv ntawm cov duab ncaj nraim thiab kev txaug kos. Concrete, iav, thiab cov ntsa nkaus muaj ntoo dej txhawb nqa ua rau cov chaw sab hauv, nqa hnub qub tuaj thiab tsim cov chaw nyob tus yees. Qhov project no muab cov chaw teev ntuj los sib xyaw nrog cov chaw pab zej zog, muab cov chaw rau kev coj noj coj ua ntawm sab ntsuj plig thiab kev sib cuam tshuam ntawm neeg. Nws ua pov thawj rau qhov chaw hauv zos txawm tias txais tos ntau yam kev ua ub no ntawm zej zog.

- Yam Tshwj Xeeb
- Resurgence is a contemporary church in Altadena, conceived as a spiritual and cultural catalyst after the wildfire. Inspired by surrounding mountain ridges, its sculpted concrete form rises vertically toward light-filled skylights, expressing renewal. A skylight atrium and courtyard weave nature, light, and community together, uniting sacred worship and civic life in a resilient beacon of collective healing and hope.
- Qhov Loj & Ntim
- Single story building with overall dimensions of 45 meters in width, 45 meters in depth, and 18 meters in height.
- Cov Ntsiab Lus
- Community renewal, cultural architecture, fluid form, concrete and light interplay, atrium with skylight, courtyard garden
- Thev Naus Laus Zis Tsim Khoom
- Materiality and light shape the design. Concrete as the primary material, conveys weight and dignity while its smooth surfaces create a clean, harmonious space. A skylight courtyard and meditation garden establish a quiet dialogue between architecture and nature. Glass curtain walls guide daylight into the interior, forming a sacred, serene atmosphere. As light moves through the vertical spaces, it brings a continuous sense of ceremony and spiritual tension.
- Kev Sib Tw Tsim Qauv
- The project faced the challenge of balancing spiritual, social, and cultural needs after wildfire loss. Internally, it required understanding Altadena’s history, community trauma, and collective memory. Externally, constraints included building codes, material limits, daylighting technology, and construction feasibility. Overcoming these involved iterative modeling, community feedback, and innovative use of concrete and glass to create a resilient, meaningful, and functional design.
- Kev Tshawb Fawb
- Type of Research: Applied architectural and social research. Objectives: Explore architecture’s role in post-wildfire community renewal. Methodology: Community engagement, iterative modeling. Tools: Site analysis, surveys, models, 3D simulations. Participants: Residents, church leaders, community groups. Results and Insights: Mountain-inspired forms, light, and open spaces foster spiritual and social connection. Impact: Strengthens cohesion, cultural life, and human-centered design practices.
- Kev Txhawb Siab
- The design was inspired by Altadena’s post-wildfire recovery and the site’s mountainous landscape. I studied topography, light behavior, and community rebuilding models to shape a form that abstracts surrounding ridges into a vertical, light-filled sanctuary. Research into trauma-informed spaces and passive daylighting informed the atrium, courtyard, and concrete massing, creating a resilient structure that fosters healing, unity, and spiritual renewal.
- Lub Sij Hawm Ua Hauj Lwm
- The project started in August 2025 and was completed in December 2025
- Txheej Txheem Ua Hauj Lwm
- This project operates through spatial flow and light manipulation. Its atrium and skylights transform daylight into dynamic patterns, guiding movement and fostering contemplation. Interaction occurs as visitors move between worship, community, and meditation spaces, experiencing shifts in scale, light, and material. Key frames include entrance, atrium, courtyard, and sanctuary. By harmonizing architecture, light, and landscape, it enhances spiritual and social engagement.
