Rothko Chapel is a one-story brick exterior with a flat roof. There is ample ambiance surrounding, such as live oak trees. Additionally, the building's plan is irregularly octagonal, including four principal walls, four secondary walls, and three triptychs of paintings on the north, east, and west walls. There are also paintings on each diagonal wall and one on the south wall. Its designer, Rothko, wanted to capture the human experience - intense, emotional states of being - and his own struggle with depression (that which cost him his life) is reflective in artwork. The project was inspired by spirituality, art, architecture, beauty, and the human condition - the latter especially showcased on a personal level by designer Rothko. The chapel has been compared to both the Chapel of the Rosary in Venice, Italy, as well as le Corbusier's Chapel in Ronchamp, France. With respect to the artist's influences, the triptych paintings were inspired by Christ's Crucifixion, although it is important to note that the chapel is open to and encourages visitors of all faiths (as well as those unaffiliated).
