Modern Church Architecture



"[T]he Church is the house of God, dedicated to his holy worship, and therefore ought to remind us both of the greatness and goodness of his Divine Majesty."

This building isn't a testament to the greatness and goodness of God. Rather, it reminds us post-modern trendiness, of lego-blocks with portholes.

Rafael Moneo



A historic block? Fuck it. A beautiful plaza? Time for a "Moneo Mushroom Stamp." Why? Cuz I'm Rafael Moneo, and I can do what I wanna do.

Jean Nouvel


Minneapolis or Metroplis, 2050?




In Barcelona, a big dildo.

Churches



Nothing quite says 'House of God' like a steel building. Just take a generic plan for a warehouse, throw a steeple on top and a cross on the side, and you're good to go.
