Cardboard Cathedral, Christchurch

Towards the end of last year, after 2 years of planning, Christchurch unveiled its Cardboard Cathedral. The new Anglican Church was designed by Japanese architect Shigeru Ban and built from waterproof and flame retardant cardboard tubes. The A-frame structure can hold 700 people and is temporary while the original cathedral is demolished and a replacement is built.
