A handout photo courtesy of Swiss architect Peter Zumthor who won the 2009 Pritzker Architect prize on 12 April 2009 shows an interior view of his work the Brother Klaus field chapel in Wachendorf, Eifel, Germany, 09 July 2007. The interior of the chapel room was formed out of 112 tree trunks, which were configured like a tent. They were covered with layers of concrete. The trunks were then burnt away leaving their impression in the walls and a charred wood smell. The chapel floor was covered with lead and the bronze relief figure in the chapel is by sculptor Hans Josephsohn. EPA/PIETRO SAVORELLI /
