O centro do conjunto, o Templo, tem como base<br />

um quadrilátero do qual se projeta uma pirâmide<br />

com 13,4 metros, invocando a altura do Templo<br />

de Salomão, construído no século IX a.C em<br />

Jerusalém e aludindo ao Antigo Egipto e a todo<br />

o seu legado cultural e religioso. 0s cantos estão<br />

orientados para os quatro pontos cardeais: norte,<br />

sul, este e oeste. Nas fachadas, destacam-se três<br />

palavras e três letras maiúsculas: Bondade (B),<br />

Moral (M) e Verdade (V).<br />

The centre of the complex, the Temple, has a<br />

quadrilateral base from which a 13.4 metre pyramid<br />

projects, recalling the height of Solomon’s Temple,<br />

built in the 9th century BC in Jerusalem and<br />

alluding to Ancient Egypt and its entire cultural<br />

and religious legacy. The corners are orientated<br />

towards the four cardinal points: north, south, east<br />

and west. On the façades, three words and three<br />

capital letters stand out: Goodness (B), Moral (M)<br />

and Truth (V).
