A catholic church designed by Rafael Moneo, placed in San Sebastian, in the new neighbourhood Riberas de Loyola.
The building, with an avant-garde style, has 900 sq. mts. It has been described by Moneo as "generous in space but modest in materials".
His crossed plant and his non-symmetric condition can be distinguished among other buildings around it. The author hopes "to reflect stress in actual society".
It also can be distinguished by its luminosity, gained by different windows opened in the roof which allows the light to penetrate through them, then to reflect in the white walls that covers the concrete inside the building but also outside it. This light trick draws a big asymmetric cross in the building roof.
Light bulbs in lower heights in the inside of the building makes notice because they make some kind of cover above the parishioners. This cover contrasts with high walls and different luminances on the roof.
The basement will be occupied by a supermarket.

Iglesia proyectada por Rafael Moneo ubicada en San Sebastián, en el nuevo barrio de Riberas de Loyola. El edificio de un diseño vanguardista tiene unos 900m2. El edificio ha sido calificado por el propio Rafael Moneo como "generoso en sus espacios y muy modesto en sus materiales". Destaca su planta en cruz quebrada y su condición no estrictamente simétrica, con la que según su autor "pretende reflejar las tensiones del mundo de hoy".
Destaca en esta iglesia su luminosidad propiciada por diferentes vanos abiertos en el techo que permiten que los rayos que penetran por estos, se reflejen en las paredes de estuco blanco que cubren el hormigón por dentro y fuera del templo. Este juego de luces dibuja una gran cruz asimétrica en el techo.
En el interior, destacan las bombillas a baja altura, que forman una especie de cubierta cercana a las cabezas de los feligreses, lo que contrasta con las altas paredes del templo y la distinta iluminación natural del techo.
El sótano de la iglesia ocupará un supermercado.
