Rebuilding lives

Article Abstract:

The Kaleidoscope Project, a Christian-run learning center and detoxification unit for drug users resembles the work of the early Moderns in Grace Architects' treatment of the building. The new version of the building layout reveals a free style of the Arts and Crafts of the 19th and 20th century, which is claimed to be an extension to Kaleidoscope's presence on the site.
