Chapel of the Holy Cross, Sedona, Arizona. Chapel of the Holy Cross, Sedona, Arizona. Conceived by sculptor Marguerite Brunswig Staude in 1932. Her early sketches impressed Lloyd Wright, son of the famous American architect Frank Lloyd Wright, but were not approved by the archbishop of Los Angeles. Her initial ideas for the church changed in 1950 after she saw a church in France designed by the painter Georges Roualt. Lloyd Wright clung to the original plans and refused to work with her. Richard Hein was chosen as project architect, and the design was executed by architect August K. Strotz. It was completed in 1957.
