Nicholas Burns' just completed Temple is a private chapel on a wooded and rocky outcrop in the hills in Northern Portugal.
As well as the architecture and landscape the chairs, altar and candle holders are all Burn's designs and made by local craftspeople.
The candles themselves were made by Nicholas's 13 year old son. While the historical apse piece came from a ruin and was painstakingly rebuilt/restored by Portuguese woodworkers.
