'Head of the church'

A separate territory, alienating the present life to the heads of the great powers temporarily forget the global issues. That is the goal of the project called Universitas Leadership Sanctuary (also called Destination Universitas).

This project can be roughly translated as "the synagogue for the prime minister" , led by Donna Vassar (descendant of the Vassar family, founded in New York's 19th century Vassar College). erected by Las Vegas lake, south of Navada desert. According to Donna, this is the best place to build the Leadership Sanctuary. From here to the city of Las Vegas is only 27 km, and solving high temperatures is purely a technical problem.

Donna collaborated with Laurie Chetwood - the founder of Chetwoods Architects - to work on the project. They asked the team of British architect and painter - Douglas Patterson, to design this project. According to the calculations of designers, to build Leadership Sanctuary takes about 30 months. Even if the starting time is not yet determined, it is possible to imagine "cathedral" like.

Although the Leadership Sanctuary is mainly where the presidents, the prime minister temporarily forgets the great state, but its appearance is a large globe (inside 4 to 6 floors), suggesting their position and responsibility. mine. Designers also do not forget to add a room for meetings, negotiations, missed when the heads of state intend to work.

The path to the building is like the entrance to a labyrinth, suggesting to the guests to leave concerns, "dark" thoughts behind . Even secretaries, advisors and other important figures are prohibited from Leadership Sanctuary. Because they can bring to their leaders questions and problems that cannot be solved immediately. Above the "globe" with a glass dome, is the room for meditation. It is absolutely quiet for heads of states to enjoy the magical scenery of Nevada (lake, unsteady mountain slopes, sunsets as well as when the moon rises .). Below the house are trees and flower gardens, which guests can directly cultivate and cultivate.

In general, after resting in this unusual house, having the opportunity to reconsider myself, the presidents and prime ministers will be completely healthy, full of excitement when returning to everyday life. It is possible that they will rethink their path, the purpose of life and more than their role in the earth.

The total estimate of Leadership Sanctuary is about 300 million USD. Donna has founded Destination Universitas Foundation and is negotiating with investors to raise capital for this project. Capital will be mobilized and Donna hopes to have an interesting and not only interesting architecture but also the best on the green planet.
