Description ▲
The practical design and development of existing and new church buildings has faced increasing demands - both ecumenical and economic in origin - throughout the western world, as churches have tried to adapt to the immense social changes of the second half of the 20th century. The author of this work aims to provide a methodology for the creation and development of churches and chapels which acknowledges the universal design criteria adopted by architects earlier in the century, yet enables both architect and user/client to resolve modern practical considerations.
