Inherent in the brief for a place of worship is the requirement to
create a powerful, transcendental experience for the user, a place of
refuge and peace. This ephemeral demand in turn requires unusual
sensibility and creative genius of the architect, yet also makes the
architect’s task particularly intriguing. This special issue analyses
the elements architects have at their disposal to conceive
transcendental places and sanctuaries conducive to contemplation and
prayer, illustrated in seventeen recent projects from around the world,
from Archstudio’s Waterside Buddhist Shrine and John McAslan’s Msheireb
Mosque, to Wirmboden Alpine Chapel and Skorba Village Centre.
