Religious architecture has a timeless quality; sacred spaces have been built for thousands of years. But today architects are called upon to design buildings that respond to a variety of faiths, and the needs of different and changing congregations. This lavish book presents the best in new religious architecture, filled with four-color photographs and drawings that explain how each building fulfills the design requirements of various denominations. More than 30 projects are included, representing a range of faiths: Christian, Jewish and Islamic. Among the projects which are found across the western hemisphere, is the work of internationally known architects including Steven Holl, Fay Jones, Ricardo Legoretta and Andras Duany & Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk.
