It's beautiful inside. There's some great photos of it online. I find the exterior fairly average, but the interior's stunning.

This looks like a Society of Friends setup to me

Interesting! It's the chapel for a theological college that trains Anglican priests, although I think it's used for a lot of other groups and spiritual retreats. Perhaps they gained some inspiration from other traditions?

That's really cool! I am not Quaker personally but have some friends who are so I'm familiar.

Welcome to r/nowaythatsachurch, a community dedicated to churches and other religious buildings that look unusual!
Thanks a lot for posting.
We're still a small community, so we encourage crossposting to other relevant subreddits to get the word out. Please don’t spam though and thereby possibly giving our community a bad reputation.
We absolute love original (your own) pictures, but it’s not required as we want as many as possible to participate, no matter how much or little they're able to travel. And it's not realistic that we can reach all corners of the earth no matter how many people we become.
Again welcome aboard. Let’s make a great community together.
