Abstract

The research of this dissertation is focused on history of church buildings and examples

of modern churches as an introduction for the designing process of the 21st-century

church building in southern Poland, Kraków.

I would like to introduce the history of church buildings over the centuries and explain

why understanding church history is so relevant while designing a modern church.

Church history is a journey that brought us to where we are today. Christianity, unlike

any other religion, is deeply rooted in history. In modern church buildings the expressive

and symbolic value of architectural elements and forms have been rediscovered. This

study is essential in order to understand what a church building is really about.

What is more, try to answer the question, what a church building stands for nowadays. I

introduce some examples of modern churches in order to present different approaches

of the symbolism and the vision for the designs. Studying the form, functions, materials,

symbolism; has determined my vision for approaching the project - the Church of the

21st-century, placed in one of the most incredible Polish cities - Kraków.

Introduction

One prominent French poet, Paul Valery, once said that there are houses 'silent', 'talking'

and some that 'sing'. Homes 'silent' are simple gray buildings, which we do not pay

attention to, we just pass them. We cannot therefore call them works of architecture. If,

however, going down the street, we turn our attention to an object, it means that it

‘speaks’ to us. Sometimes it will be nice in the proportions of solid, interesting overview of

the different elements of a building or a detail, which is original and drew our attention.

Such a structure can therefore be called a work of architecture. If, however, a building

immediately draws our attention to its uncommon beauty, you can stay for hours on the

street and stare at it, not sparing words of admiration, it means that the structure 'sing' -

and certainly it is an outstanding work of architecture. 1

For centuries, church buildings have been ‘singing’ to us; delighting with they’re

astonishing beauty and audacious designs. Through the research and careful study of the

subject I want to introduce the 21st century church building that will be in line with the

Church nowadays - not boring and uninteresting, but magnificent, alive and bold in its

every aspect.

Chapter 1: RESEARCH

1.1 Understanding Church History

Church History may seem irrelevant to 21st century Christianity. However, Christianity,
unlike any other religion, is deeply rooted in history. The historical reality of the sacrifice
of Jesus Christ, burial and resurrection is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. The Bible
is not a fairy tale, but a divinely inspired historical record of God's plan of redemption for
a hurting world. To study church history is to see the hand of God at work amongst the
struggles, transgression and glory of man's ways.

Church history is vital to our understanding of the institution of the Christian church. Much
is to be gleaned from the events between the time of the apostles and the present day.

In 1 Corinthians 10, the apostle Paul exhorts the Corinthian church to learn from the
examples of Israel's past, so they don’t make the same mistakes.

‘For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, that our ancestors were all under the
cloud and that they all passed through the sea (…) They all ate the same spiritual food
and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that
accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. (…) Now these things occurred as examples
to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did. Do not be idolaters, as some
of them were (…) We should not test Christ, as some of them did - and were killed by
snakes. (…) So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! (…) And
God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you
are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.’ 2

Like the history of ancient Israel, the history of the Christian church is to be remembered
and learned from. Nowadays, for instance, many who are skeptical of the Christian faith
often associate Christianity with the violence and imperialism of the crusades. But taking a
look at church history will show that the crusades happened at a time when the papacy
was a political institution corrupted by power and greed. The crusades took advantage of
Christianity, but had nothing to do with the underlying gospel of grace. Today, our culture
is often confronted with new and bizarre religious philosophies, some of which present
themselves under the banner of Christianity. Understanding Christian doctrine in light of
church history helps us to separate fiction from the facts.

What is more, church history is exciting and essential in our life; it’s full of examples of
great men of God fighting for their faith, speaking with conviction for what they believe.
It’s a journey that brought us to where we are today.

Church History Timeline

Table 1: Main Phases of Church History - Timeline

Church History Phases - Summary

PHASE 1 – Early Fathers

Early Fathers – Fathers of the Church: Justin Martyr, Tertullian, Origen of Alexandria - early
and influential theologians, eminent Christian teachers and great bishops. Their scholarly
works were used as a precedent for centuries to come.

The culture was structured and organized. It was a very educational time. Greco-Roman
culture of spirituality was related heavily to philosophy and apologetics.

The church was starting to get structured and organized; it was establishing doctrine ad
writing the Canon at Nicaea. Great persecution, being scattered amongst the nation and
speaking with conviction brought great growth.

PHASE 2 – Byzantine Era

The culture: Barbarianism was on the rise across Europe but not at a level to defeat Roman
Empire, though its authority was questioned on all sides. Europe was almost united under
the rule of Charlemagne.

The church: Following on from the instigation and catalyst of the Constantine Church and
State become more and more intertwined. Their close relationship births an era of great
prosperity for the Church, but also great conflicts and tribulations. The rise of Islam begins
to threaten the West birthing the crusades.

3
PHASE 3 – Middle Ages

The culture: Barbaric tribes characterize culture in this era. Nomadic warrior people
whose borders are constantly shifting. In this era of unsettled politics and monarchy there
is little centralized power, as a result education and human advancement are limited, the
dark ages. It is fertile soil for reformation.

The church: During the Middle Ages in Europe, the Church continued to hold power, with
the popes claiming authority over all levels of life and living as kings. The Church finds
itself in the position to greatly increase its influence in this period of Nomadic disorganized
society. With the fall of Rome, it has become the most powerful organization in Europe and
provides education and care for its people. Corruption and greed in the church leadership
was commonplace. Combining these two elements points straight to the cause of
reformation.

PHASE 4 – Reformation

The culture: Culture is a lot more structured then previously. Monarchies and governments
have been established and more firm borders instituted. The state in its newly organized
form is attempting to wrestle back of the power which has now got. There is reform in art,
literature, science, thinking, politics and religion.

The church: Reform is the central theme of this period of Church history. Luther posts his
95 theses on the door of the cathedral at Wittenberg; Henry brig about the split between
the Catholic and the Anglican churches, and reform sweeps throughout the continent of
Europe. Much more widely available Bible make Christianity more accessible than ever
before.

Martin Luther

Martin Luther was a German living in XVI century. He was a priest and professor of theology
who initiated the Reformation. He strongly disputed the claim that freedom from God's
punishment of sin could be purchased with money.

He confronted indulgence salesman Johann Tetzel with his Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 on
the door of the castle church. His refusal to retract all of his writings at the demand of
pope and the roman emperor resulted in his excommunication and condemnation as an
outlaw by the emperor.

Luther taught that salvation is not earned by good deeds but received only as a free gift of
God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ as redeemer from sin. His theology challenged the
authority of the pope of the Roman Catholic Church by teaching that the Bible is the only
source of divinely revealed knowledge and claimed that all baptized Christians are the holy
priesthood.
4
He poured out his energy in study, thinking, writing and translation the New Testament into
German. His translation of the Bible into the language of the people (instead of Latin)
made it more accessible, causing a tremendous impact on the church and on German
culture. His hymns influenced the development of singing in churches. His teachings
changed the world.

PHASE 5 – Modern Era

The culture: Between 1700 and 2011 the culture takes massive leaps and bounds forward.
Politics play a massive role in shaping culture; wars and revolutions massively shape
thought. Philosophy and science attempt to replace religion and faith. The World Wars
shape the World’s political landscape; massive advances in technology make the world
much smaller.

The church: With the Founding Fathers carrying the Christian faith to America and the
Great Awakening, the Church prospers in the early Modern era. As the era develops, it is
faced with an increasingly secularized society content to settle with the explanations of
science and modern thought over the idea of Faith. Heroes of the faith continue to carry
the Word of God against the persecution of the Nazi’s and in the East against Communist
dictators.

1.2 From House Church to Modern Church

A Church Building is a building or a structure which main purpose is to facilitate the

meeting of the Church. Originally, Jewish Christians met in synagogues and in each
another's homes. As Christianity grew and became more accepted by governments, rooms
and, eventually, entire buildings were set aside for the explicit purpose of Christian
worship.

Traditional church buildings are often in the shape of a cross and frequently have a tower
or a dome. Nowadays though, modern church buildings have a variety of architectural
styles and layouts; many buildings that were designed for other purposes have now been
converted for church use, and, similarly, many original church buildings have been put to
other uses.

From the first to the early fourth centuries most Christian communities worshipped in their
private homes, often secretly. Some Roman churches, such as the Basilica of San Clemente
in Rome, are built directly over the houses where early Christians worshipped. Other early
Roman churches are built on the sites of Christian martyrdom or at the entrance to
catacombs where Christians were buried.

6
Christianity became a lawful and then the privileged religion of the Roman Empire with the
victory of the Roman emperor Constantine in 312 AD. The faith, already spread around the
Mediterranean, and strongly expressed itself in architecture. Christian building was made
to correspond to civic and imperial forms, and so the basilica - a large rectangular meeting
hall - became general in east and west, as the model for churches, with a nave and aisles
and sometimes galleries and clerestories.

The first very large Christian churches were built in Rome and have their origins in the
early 4th century - for example Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome.

Across Europe, the process by which church architecture developed and individual
churches were designed and built was different in different regions, and sometimes
differed from church to church in the same region and within the same historic period.

There were different factors that determined how a church was designed and built. First of
all, the nature of the local community and its location within the city, town or village.
Secondly, the character of the church was also very important - whether the church was an
abbey church, a collegiate church; whether it had the patronage of a bishop or the ongoing
patronage of a wealthy family. What is more, whether the church contained relics of a
saint or other holy objects that were likely to draw pilgrimage.

Churches that have been built under the patronage of a bishop have generally employed a
competent church architect and demonstrate in the design a refinement of style unlike
that of the parochial builder.

Photo 2: Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome, Italy

7
Many parochial churches have had the patronage of wealthy local families; it may entail
the design and construction of the entire building having been financed and influenced by
a particular patron. On the other hand, the evidence of patronage may be apparent only in
an accretion of chantry chapels, tombs, memorials, fittings, stained glass and other
decorations.

Churches that contain famous relics or objects of veneration and have thus become
pilgrimage churches are often very large and have been elevated to the status of basilica.
However, many other churches enshrine the bodies or are associated with the lives of
particular saints without having attracted continuing pilgrimage.

In the early 16th century Martin Luther and the Reformation brought a period of radical
change to church design. Prior to the Reformation, translations of the Bible into local
languages were extremely rare; in the West the authorized version was in Latin, the
language of worship, low courts and scholarship.

Comparatively few works of literature were written in the vernacular until the advent of
printing in the fifteenth century. Nevertheless, the denial of the right to produce Bibles in
local languages was an instrument of control both papal and by princes so that access to
the word became a hallmark of Reformation thinking and preaching more prominent.
Pulpits had always been a feature of Western churches but they now came to replace the
altar as the primary focus. However while the birth of Protestantism led to massive
changes in the way that Christianity was practiced - and as a result - the design of
churches, Catholic churches retained an emphasis on the symbolic.

According to Duncan Stroik, late in the Reformation period, there was a shift across all
denominations to an emphasis on ’full and active participation’. In the Roman Catholic
Church this was achieved through an emphasis on ‘emotional exuberance’, which meant
that even those members of the congregation who were unfamiliar with the ceremony
could still be deeply moved.

With the onset late 16th century, exquisite marble statues adorned the churches, and gold
fittings combined with superb stained glass windows in a celebration of the faith. In
contrast, in Protestant churches the altar and tabernacle were often removed, and a
communion table and pulpit replaced the altar.

Despite the apparent disparity, both denominations sought to provide for fundamentally
the same purpose: to allow the worshippers to feel close to God.

8
Modernism

The main idea was that worship was a corporate activity and that the congregation should
be in no way excluded from sight or participation to the rest of the church. Simple one-
room plans are almost of the essence of modernity in architecture.

More central to the development of the process was Schloss Rothenfels in Germany which
was remodeled in 1928 by Rudolf Schwartz. It was a large rectangular space, with solid
white walls, deep windows and a stone pavement. It had no decoration. The only furniture
consisted of a hundred little black cuboid moveable stools. For worship, an altar was set
up and the faithful surrounded it on three sides.

Corpus Christi in Aachen was Schwartz's first parish church and adheres to the same
principles, very much reminiscent of the Bauhaus movement of art. Externally it is a plan
cube; the interior has white walls and colorless windows. In front of the altar were simple
benches. Behind the altar was a great white void of a back wall, signifying the region of
the invisible Father.

Photo 3: Corpus Christi, Aachen, Germany

9
Similar principles of simplicity and continuity of style throughout can be found in the
United States, in particular at the Roman Catholic Abbey church of St. Procopius in Lisle,
near Chicago.

A theological principle which resulted in change was the decree Sacrodanctum Concillium
of the Second Vatican Council issued in December 1963. This encouraged 'active
participation' by the faithful in the celebration of the liturgy by the people, and required
that new churches should be built with this in mind.

Subsequently, rubrics and instructions encouraged the use of a freestanding altar allowing
the priest to face the people. The effect of these changes can be seen in such churches as
the Roman Catholic Metropolitan Cathedrals of Liverpool and the Brasilia, both circular
buildings with a free-standing altar.

10
Different principles and practical pressures produced other changes. Parish churches were
inevitably built more modestly. Often shortage of finances, as well as a 'market place'
theology suggested the building of multi-purpose churches, in which secular and sacred
events might take place in the same space at different times. The emphasis on the unity of
the liturgical action, was countered by a return to the idea of movement.

Three spaces, one for the baptism, one for the liturgy of the word and one for the
celebration of the eucharist with a congregation standing around an altar, were promoted
by Richard Giles in England and the United States. The congregation were to process from
one place to another.

Such arrangements were less appropriate for large congregations than for small; for the
former, proscenium arch arrangements with huge amphitheaters such as at Willow Creek
Community Church in Chicago have been one answer.

11
Postmodernism

The Postmodern Movement in Architecture was formed in reaction to the ideals of

modernism as a response to the perceived blandness, hostility, and Utopianism of the
Modern movement. While rare in designs of Church architecture, there are nonetheless
some notable examples as architects have begun to recover and renew historical styles and
‘cultural memory’ of Christian architecture.

The functional and formalized shapes and spaces of the modernist movement are replaced
by unapologetically diverse aesthetics: styles collide, form is adopted for its own sake, and
new ways of viewing familiar styles and space abound.

Perhaps most obviously, architects rediscovered the expressive and symbolic value of
architectural elements and forms that had evolved through centuries of building - often
maintaining meaning in literature, poetry and art - but which had been abandoned by the
modern movement.

What is more, many of the churches nowadays, like Hillsong Church, use huge auditoriums,
and even stadiums while gathering together for worship. They stand together in unity to
experience God’s presence and Him moving within their lives.

1.3 Modern Churches - Examples

1.3.1 JUBILEE CHURCH in Rome

by Richard Meier and Partners (2003)

Meier's building is a dramatic church and community center surrounded by 1970s

apartment blocks, six miles to the east of Rome.

As Richard Meier describes it himself:

‘Light is the protagonist of our understanding and reading of space. Light is the means by
which we are able to experience what we call sacred. Light is at the origins of this
building... In the Jubilee Church, the three concrete shells define an enveloping
atmosphere in which the light from the skylights above creates a luminous spatial
experience, and the rays of sunlight serve as a mystical metaphor of the presence of
God...’ 3

Photo 7: Jubilee Church, Rome, Italy

13
‘Transparency and light cascade down from the skylit roof, literally invading the interior
of the church also penetrating from below through a narrow slot opened at floor level.
People in the atrium are enveloped with mystical light.’ 4

The color palette and materials in the Jubilee church are restrained and beautiful:
traditional Roman travertine; more recently-Roman smooth, white concrete, invented for
the Olympic Stadium in Rome in 1960 and created by Italcementi; and light wood panelling
and pews.

With the structure supported by the curved cantilever of the concrete-clad shells, reaching
over towards the opposite ’spine’ wall, the west (altar) and east (organ) walls are light
glazing, surrounding the bright, white set pieces for the cross and organ respectively.
Taking part in a prayer, you feel like celebrating in the presence of God thanks to the roof
of the nave, the eastern and the western facade entirely made in glass. Despite all the
glazing, the geometry is such that direct sun almost never comes into the church.

The work on natural lighting on the interior, which comes through the gaps between the
solid elements and brightens the whole space: main source of diffused light is the glass
roof between the shells, but in early morning and late afternoon the sunlight penetrates
the entrance facade and the altar facade, giving spectacular atmospheric effects.

The whole design concept is based on the contrast between cube and sphere, and the
clear division - or connection point - is the main space of the Church.

1.3.2 CHURCH OF LIGHT in Ibaraki, Osaka
by Tadao Ando (1989; Sunday School addition 1999)

The church is located in a quiet residential neighborhood in the suburbs of Osaka. It is

made of silky smooth concrete which sits modestly within its environment.

The communal church consists of two rectangular volumes that are both cut at a 15 degree
angles by freestanding concrete walls. One indirectly enters the church by slipping
between the two volumes, one that contains the Sunday school and the other that contains
the worship hall. The church has an area of roughly 113 m² (about the same size as a small
house).

The benches, along with the floor boards, are made of re-purposed scaffolding used in the
construction. A cruciform is cut into the concrete behind the altar, and lit during the
morning (as it is facing east).

Tadao Ando wanted to express the dual nature of existence in his project. The space of the
chapel is defined by light, the strong contrast between light and solid.

Photo 9: Church of Light, Ibaraki, Osaka, Japan

15
In the chapel light enters from behind the altar from a cross cut in the concrete wall that
extends vertically from floor to ceiling and horizontally from wall to wall, aligning
perfectly with the joints in the concrete. At this intersection of light and solid the
occupant is meant to become aware of the deep division between the spiritual and the
secular within himself or herself.

One feature of the interior is its profound emptiness. Many who enter the church say they
find it disturbing. The distinct void space and absolute quiet amounts to a sense of
serenity.

For Tadao Ando the idea of 'emptiness' means something different. It is meant to transfer
someone into the realm of the spiritual. The emptiness is meant to invade the occupant so
there is room for the 'spiritual' to fill them.

The space of the chapel is defined by light, by the strong contrast between light and
shade. In the chapel light enters from behind the altar, from a cruciform cut in the
concrete wall that extends vertically from floor to ceiling and horizontally from wall to
wall, aligning perfectly with the joints in the concrete.

From this cruciform shape an abstract and universal light seems to be floating on the
concrete wall, its rays extending and receding over time with the movement of the sun.
The darkness of the chapel is further accentuated by the dark and rough-textured wood of
the floor planks and the pews which are built out of reused wood used during construction
as scaffolding.

In contrast to the darkness of the chapel the interior of the Sunday school is built of lighter
colored wood with a smooth surface. The volume of the Sunday school opens up to a
double height space with a mezzanine level that contains a small kitchen, bench and table
which are used for congregation gatherings. 

The volume containing the Sunday school also has light that penetrates the space through
the slicing of the volume by the freestanding concrete wall. The space comes alive not
only with ever changing light but also through the voices of children singing, sounds of the
piano, adults enjoying a meal of soba noodles after Sunday worship and laughter.

1.3.3 TAMPA COVENANT CHURCH in Florida
by Alfonso Architects

The program of the project included a new freestanding church building comprised of a
worship sanctuary, administrative offices, and classrooms for an existing congregation of
450. In addition, the project required the renovation of two existing single level buildings,
one from the 1960’s and one from the 1990’s, and a complete site redesign including
parking, lighting and landscaping.

To establish an intimate church campus the architect designed a new exterior courtyard to
act as a catalyst for community interaction, and as the physical nexus joining new and
existing buildings. Integrative natural elements were used to manifest the congregation's
theological sensitivities in terms of physicality of the space. The Fibonacci sequence of
natural proportions was the underlying basis for the chancel area. The careful positioning
of elements (chapel, walls and the cross) also harmonize with the ever widening spiral
design.

The many architectural features of the project were derived from theological precedence
while reflecting quantities of numerical biblical importance (like 3 olive trees, 12 office
windows, 14 pendant lights, 7 candle boxes). Natural light, evidenced by the use of
skylights and candlelight, as well as the focused use of wood and stone contribute to the
important communion of human beings and their natural environment.

1.3.4 AUDACIOUS CHURCH in Manchester

Audacious is a church in Manchester with 2 campuses (main in the city centre & east in
Failsworth). The main campus was completed in 2011 through renovating an old seafood
warehouse and transforming it into a modern church building.

Audacious Church is... truly audacious! They believe that everything they do in church
should be fun, enthusiastic and actually have the potential to change one’s life for the
better.

The old warehouse have been divided into 3 main zones - admin (with the solid block of
offices and sunday school facilities), main auditorium and connection area.

The main auditorium is a hall without windows with a big stage, where the Audacious Band
leads people in worship every Sunday. The hall can facilitate up to 2000 people for a
service. The stage operates with a modern sound and lighting equipment in order to
provide mystical atmospheric effects and help people connect with God.

The connection area is designed for the church to build relationship and connect with each
others. It has a special area with tables and a bar, where all those who are thirsty or just
simply lovers of a good cup of coffee can get the preferable beverage or a snack after the
service.

Modern Church Buildings:

- styles collide
- the expressive and symbolic value of architectural elements and forms rediscovered
- creative
- magnificent, stunning, ‘singing’
- places designed to worship God
- usually with a solid offices block and a community services
- rooms for children and youth (called Sunday school/Power Breakfast)
- quite often with a coffee area or a space to build relationship after the church gathering
- based on contrasts (light/shade, light/solid, symbolic values etc)
- providing the unique mystical atmosphere in order to help people connect with God,
‘transferring them into the realm of the spiritual’

The most important thing we have to always have in mind is that christianity is all about
LOVE - loving GOD and PEOPLE around us.

The Bible tells us there is only ONE GOD - but what kind of church we attend, how we
experience Him and how our relationship looks like depends just on different perspectives.
We were all created by one God and should be focusing on Him - not on any differences
when it comes to denominations; remembering about being UNITED as ONE CHURCH of
ONE GOD - as christians - the followers of Christ - the church the Apostles started after
Jesus’s command to ‘go and make disciples’. 5

Chapter 2: PROJECT

2.1 Localization

Poland in Europe

Poland (Polish: Polska), officially the Republic of Poland is a country in Central Europe
bordered by Germany to the west; the Czech Republic and Slovakia to the south; Ukraine,
Belarus and Lithuania to the east; and the Baltic Sea and Kaliningrad Oblast, a Russian
exclave, to the north.

Area: 322,575 sq km (124,547 sq miles, about size of New Mexico).

Poland has a population of over 38 million people.
The capital (and the largest city) is WARSAW.

Kraków in Poland

Kraków (eng. Cracow) is the second largest (~756,000 inhabitants) and one of the oldest
cities in Poland. Situated on the Vistula River (polish: Wisła) in the Lesser Poland region
(southern Poland), the city dates back to the 7th century. Kraków has traditionally been
one of the leading centers of Polish academic, cultural, and artistic life and is one of
Poland's most important economic hubs.

Photo 13: Kraków in Poland - Localization (Map)

The metropolitan city of Kraków is known as the city of churches. The abundance of
landmark, historic temples along with the plenitude of monasteries and convents earned
the city a countrywide reputation as the ‘Northern Rome’ in the past. The churches of
Kraków comprise over 120 places of worship of which over sixty were built in the 20th
century.

Denominations include Roman Catholicsm (48 Churches), Jehova’s Witnesses (10 Kingdom
Hall), Protestantism (8 Churches), Buddhism (5), Polish Orthodox Church (1 Church).

2.2 Program

Foyer / Lobby

It is the entrance area adjacent to the main auditorium, with access to sanitary facilities
and coffee area. In my project I decided to make it an open space with a lot of light,
creating a welcoming atmosphere for all the visitors.

Main Auditorium

The main auditorium is a room built to enable the church to get together in order to
worship God and experience His presence together, in unity.

Sunday school

Sunday school is an integral part of any protestant church building. It is created in order
for the children and youth of the congregation to get the right teaching and spend the
quality time with their peers. 1 room, separated into 2 sections (children and the youngest
kids).

Coffee Area

It is a place of fellowship, where people are able to connect with each other and grow in
relationships as the church.

Resources Stand

An area with a long table providing the christian resources (like Bibles, books, teachings,
sermons, CDs).

Sanitary Facilities

Three sanitary facilities; for ladies, men and for the disabled.

Prayer Room

A room available for those in need to get some quiet time with God and focus on a prayer.

Office

Pastor’s office.

2.3 Characteristics of the Project

Symbolism

Through the research of the symbolic meanings of different signs, in my project I’ve
decided to focus to the square and circle symbolism. (->2.4 Symbolism)

Simple shape

The design shows how plain geometry, layered definition of spaces and effects of light and
shade, allow to create clear and comprehensible spaces.

White form

‘White is the most wonderful color because within it you can see all the colors of the
rainbow. The whiteness of white is never just white; it is almost always transformed by
light and that which is changing; the sky, the clouds, the sun and the moon.’ - Richard
Meier 6

Through the construction and glass elements I want to create a unique atmosphere using
the contrast between light and shade.

Glass

Translucent materials give architects many possibilities to exploit the sensual interplay of
light and the fascination of interior-exterior interaction; the glass allows light to enter into
rooms and floors, illuminating enclosed spaces and framing an exterior view.

Wooden Panels

Wood wall panels create a unique aesthetic value of any space. Its visual upside creates
more people-friendly atmosphere of the design.

2.4 Symbolism

The Square symbol underscores the potential duality in everything and encourages
balance; the square is comprised of straight lines, and those fixed lines invite a feeling of
stasis, fixation and immutability; in fact, when I see squares, I always think of foundations
(like homes, buildings or even plots of earth squared off for gardening);

The square itself stands for:

stabilizing,

structure,

foundation,

basics,

community,

balance,

direction,

dependability,

integrity.

The Circle symbol meaning is universal, sacred and divine; it represents the infinite
nature of energy, and the inclusivity of the universe;

The circle itself stands for:

inclusion,

wholeness,

focus,

unity,

perfection,

centering,

revolution,

infinity,

completion;

=> no better words to describe a modern church!

2.7.3 Plan

As I presented in one of the previous chapters (--> 2.6 Idea), my aim was to present a
church which plan was to be a combination of a square and a circle (--> 2.4 Symbolism).

1 Foyer

2 Coffee Area

3 Sanitary Facilities
4 Sunday School

5 Prayer Rooms
6 Pastor’s Office

7 Main Auditorium

Photo 23: Plan of the Church Building - Main Rooms

30
The main entrance to the building is covered with the glass roof, providing a shelter for
the people, at the same time bringing the feeling of lightness and delicacy. As you enter
the building, you get into the Foyer (1) - the entrance area with the Resources stand on
the left hand sight and the entrance to the Main Auditorium (7) on the right. Ii is an open
space with a long horizontal window providing the light and wooden panels, in order to
create more people-friendly atmosphere within the area. The Foyer is connected with the
rest of the rooms with corridors (some of them are more open spaces - like by the coffee
area, and some are more separated).

From the Foyer, you have access to the Coffee Area (2), separated through two open
walls, generating a more intimate space for the church to spend some time together after
the service and connect with each other - to grow in relationships together, as the Church.
The Coffee Area has tables with chairs for people to rest and a long table for some
available snacks and drinks. Behind the second separation wall behind the Coffee Area, you
have access to the Sanitary Facilities (3) - for women (3a), for men (3b) and for the
disabled (3c).

The Sunday School (4) facility is a big room, partially separated by a short wall in order to
create more intimate space while having more than one group of children/youth in there.
It is a great for the younger part of the congregation to get the right teaching and spend
some quality time with their peers, creating the atmosphere of joy.

Next, you have the Prayer Room (5), which - as the name speaks for itself - is a room,
available for those in need to get some quiet time with God and focus on a prayer. The
Pastor’s Office (6) is right next to the back entrance to the building, connected with the
rest of the building by the long corridor, with the entrance to the Main Auditorium (7).

Main Auditorium (7) - Symbolism

The Bible gives us a very specific description of the Temple of God; within the Holy Place
of the tabernacle, there was an inner room called the Most Holy Place. It was the most
sacred room, a place no ordinary man could enter. It was God’s special dwelling place in
the midst of His people. A thick curtain separated the Most Holy Place from the Holy Place.
This curtain was also known as the ‘veil’.

The word ‘veil’ in Hebrew means a screen, divider or separator that hides. Essentially, the
veil was shielding a holy God from sinful man. Whoever entered into the Holy of Holies was
entering the very presence of God. In fact, anyone except the high priest who entered the
Holy of Holies would die.

The picture of the veil was that of a barrier between man and God, showing man that the
holiness of God could not be trifled with. The veil was a barrier to make sure that man
could not carelessly and irreverently enter into God’s awesome presence. So the presence
of God remained shielded from man behind a thick curtain during the history of Israel.
However, Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross changed that. When He died, the curtain in
the Jerusalem temple was torn, from the top to the bottom.

‘And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment
the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.‘ 7

Only God could have carried out such an incredible feat because the veil was too high for
human hands to have reached it, and too thick to have torn it. Furthermore, it was torn
from top down, meaning this act must have come from above. As the veil was torn, the
Holy of Holies was exposed. God’s presence was now accessible to all. Shocking as this may
have been to the priests ministering in the temple that day, it is indeed good news to all
believers, because they know that Jesus’ death has atoned for their sins and made them
right before God. The torn veil illustrated Jesus’ body broken for us, opening the way for
us to God. As Jesus cried out ‘It is finished!’8 on the cross, He was indeed proclaiming that
God’s redemptive plan was now complete. The ultimate offering had been sacrificed.

In my project I have decided to use this symbolism of the ‘veil’ - the separation of ordinary
men from the presence of God - through presenting the main outside wall in the
auditorium as ‘broken and torn’. I moved the specific parts of it as a symbol of it not being
massive and solid (bringing a feeling of separation), but using the the glass elements,
providing a feeling of lightness and no boundaries; so that all the people gathered in the
church don’t feel separated from the rest of the world when they want to worship God -
but that He is everywhere and through the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross,
we all have access to Him and His presence, anywhere, not only within the room.

7 Bible - New International Version (NIV): Matthew 27:50-51

8 Bible - New International Version (NIV): John 19:30

32
I have also decided to use blue glass in the design in order to bring different shades of blue
into the room; while blue color being the symbol of freedom and strength. Blue is also the
color of loyalty, faith and protection.

The benches have been placed in an oval-shape in line with the altar and the main outside
wall, not being strictly geometrical as usual, so that they bring the feeling of freedom
within the room, where people can feel relaxed.

The main auditorium has access to it from the lobby for everyone; one door from the
corridor by the altar, right next to the pastor’s office for the pastor and the rest of the
leaders to enter the room; and extra emergency door into the back car park of the church
building.

Conclusion

The aim of this work has been to introduce a modern church building to people nowadays.

For centuries church buildings have been delighting with they’re astonishing beauty and

bold designs. Through the research and the study of the subject I wanted to introduce my

vision of the 21st-century Church in the Polish ‘city of churches’ - Kraków.

I also wanted to bring more revelation into the aspect of christian symbolism in

architecture; to answer the question, what does the church building stand for nowadays

and how it should be seen by people, not only the believers - magnificent, audacious, full

of beauty and extraordinary symbolism; providing opportunities to connect with God in

both levels - for oneself individual relationship with God, and for the church - standing

before God as an army in worship.
