Description
The magazine investigates sacredness and how it manifests in architectural space. Taking examples from religious works of architecture in different parts of the globe, this issue endeavours to establish a language of light and shadow, materiality, and scale. AI complicates the notion of “sacred space” further. Using this theme, guest editor Erwin Viray introduces generative AI tools to illuminate the direction that architectural design may take as well as confront human sensibilities and shared ideas about architectural space. Fourteen nonreligious projects offer alternative perspectives on how this same sense of awe and serenity can be translated into our everyday lives.
