Course Description

Summary

The history of architecture is replete with marvelous constructions that were built to establish a sacred ‘center’ - to give meaning to the world. This studio will look at examples from history of the variety of ways that sacred spaces have been created. Students will develop a series of projects to explore the possibilities of creating ineffable, numinous spaces that may foster a sense of transcendence. Readings will include essays by architects, anthropologists and philosophers.
