Welcome to the Church Architecture Network! This is the website for design professionals and church leaders, offering resources for church building or renovation projects. NEWS Swedenborg Chapel: Located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the Chapel was designed in 1901 by H. Langford Warren, founder of the Harvard School of Architecture. Although its century-old exterior is landmarked locally and the Chapel is in the National Registry of Historic Places, its interior is in danger of extinction if the 35 members of the congregation cannot come up with close to $2 million to buy the building for their continued worship. The March 31 deadline has been extended by 6 months.
Find out more about the Chapel and the congregation's preservation efforts at Save Swedenborg Chapel or contact Rev. Sarah Buteux via e-mail.

Gothic Architecture
The term Gothic was first used during the later Renaissance , and as a term of contempt. Says Vasari, "Then arose new architects who after the manner of their barbarous nations erected buildings in that style which we call Gothic", while Evelyn but expresses the mental attitude of his own time when he writes, "The ancient Greek and Roman architecture answered all the perfections required in a faultless and accomplished building" but the Goths and Vandals destroyed these and "introduced in their stead a certain fantastical and licentious manner of building: congestions of heavy, dark, melancholy, monkish piles, without any just proportion, use or beauty." For the first time, an attempt was made to destroy an instinctive and, so far as Europe was concerned, an almost universal form of art, and to substitute in its place another built up by artificial rules and premeditated theories; it was necessary, therefore, that the ground should be cleared of a once luxuriant growth that still showed signs of vitality, and to effect this the schools of Vignola Palladio , and Wren were compelled to throw scorn on the art they were determined to discredit. As ignorant of the true habitat of the style as they were of its nature, the Italians of the Renaissance called it the "maniera Tedesca", and since to them the word

Church Architecture
I use the term " decorated shed " that Robert Venturi develops in Learning from Las Vegas as a starting point for describing or "reading" small protestant churches. Most of these church buildings are of more recent architecture and from the second half of the 20th century or are housed in buildings that housed different types of businesses in the past. It's interesting to compare the style of these churches to the selection of older churches on the rest of this page. Here are some of the churches I've read as decorated sheds. Additional decorated shed churches:
Tennessee Churches In Lauderdale and Ripley Counties Tennessee, there are probably hundreds of churches. Many are like the newer "decorated sheds" I discuss above. But there are also many older brick churches from the first half of the 20th Century Like the Hurricanne Hill Methodist to the right. Here are a few more.

    An illustrated history from Cyber Macedonia from the sixth to the nineteenth centuries, including churches, monasteries and houses.
    http://www.f1.net.au/users/igortoni/architeo.html
    OLD ARCHITECTURE IN MACEDONIA
    Following the creative architectural work in Macedonia, a continuity of intensive production was marked by socio-political, economic, and cultural conditions.
    In the course of the settlement in Macedonia territory, during the sixth and part of the seventh century, architectural work in comparison with the previous, later ancient period decrease, was influenced by their preparation for new conditions of living in a milieu with a rather developed artistic tradition.
    In the course of the second half of the ninth century (after the conversion into Christianity), architectural activity began in earnest particularly during the time of Bishop's Kliment and Naum, the pupils of Kiril and Metodij, as well as during Samuel. The main centres were in the region of Lake Ohrid and Prespa.
    Kliment built the monastery of St. Pantelemon in Ohrid (893) in the shape of a trikonchos, and its ruins were discovered in the foundations of the Imaret mosque. Several years later, Naum erected the church of St.Arangel, on the left bank of lake Ohrid. Also in trikonchos shape and its foundation have been excavated under the present - day church of St. Naum.
    St. Arangel's church dates from the Samuel's period (about 980) built on the island of the same name in Mala Prespa (Small Prespa), as well as the church of St. Sofia, renovated in the time of Archbishop Lean (1037-56). Its shape is the oriental three-nave basilica with "transept" complemented with two storeys "exnartex" (1313/14). The present shape dates from the Turkish period, when it was transformed into a mosque. Several churches were erected in that time such as St. Leontie in Vodori (the western church), and the Virgin Mary of Eleusa in Veljusi. Mentioned for the first time in 1085, both churches in the Strumica region as well as the church in Drenova near Kavadarci.

Monaghan / Introduction Welcome to our new section dealing with the many interesting buildings around county Monaghan in southern Ulster. Monaghan formed part of the ancient territory of Oriel, and was known as the MacMahon country because of the dominance of that powerful clan. From the 13th to the 16th century the MacMahon family controlled Monaghan, but in 1589 control passed to the British crown. Monaghan is in the traditional province of Ulster in northeastern Ireland bordered on the northwest, north, and northeast by Northern Ireland and on the southeast, south, and southwest by counties Louth, Meath, and Cavan. The county covers 1,290 sq km (498 sq mi). As you can understand, this is a pretty large undertaking which is why we will be adding buildings and places as we cover them.

    35. The Architecture Of Samogitian Wooden Churches
    Lithuanian lowlanders traditionally built timber churches; some survive from the 18th and 19th centuries .Category Arts architecture Christian churches Wooden......THE architecture OF SAMOGITIAN WOODEN churches. Wooden period shouldbe distinguished in the history of Samogitian wooden churches
    http://daugenis.mch.mii.lt/Samogitia/KULTURA/medbazn.en.htm
    THE ARCHITECTURE OF SAMOGITIAN WOODEN CHURCHES Wooden period should be distinguished in the history of Samogitian wooden churches from oldest times to 1918:
    1. The 15th century - the middle of the 17th century - a period of Catholicism, selection and mastering of compositional principles and techniques of sacred buildings; 2. The middle of the 17th century - 1795 - a period of flourishing of Catholicism and sacred architecture; 3. 1795 - 1918 a period of oppression of Catholicism, stabilization of traditional solutions of sacred architecture, spreading of compositional principles and techniques of professional architecture.
    • The Samogitians were christened in 1414. As early as in 1416 Vytautas Magnus initiated the construction of the first eight churches. Up to the 18th century the work was slow: in the second half of the 16th century the development of sacred architecture was hindered by Protestantism and in the 17th century - by the wars with Moscow and Sweden. The historical documents testify that the Samogitian wooden churches were rectangular, with two small towers on the roofs and a sacristy on the right side. The churches inside space was divided only by a beam with a crucifix.

    Sacred Geometry and Armenian Architecture
    INTRODUCTION
    SACRED NUMBERS ABOUT SACRED GEOMETRY EXAMPLES: GARNI ... EXAMPLES: ECHMIADZIN AND EARLY CHURCHES

    Ugh! Geometry on a tour? I bet you thought you passed that class long ago. If you can bear to remember your geometry classes, you will find that the origins of mathematics and how it was used by the ancients to construct their cities and temples has not changed that much over time, it has just become more complex (and has fueled the success of hand calculators). The essentials remain the same: a circle, a square, a rectangle, and the myriad permutations of those forms. Exactly where geometry came from we are not sure, but the source has moved a little East of where people used to think it came from. From Classical Greece, where it received its most philosophic and poetic applications (and from where Western cultures inherited it), geometry’s origins moved first to Egypt and Mesopotamia, and then to the Armenian plateau, where the earliest known cities are located. For without geometry, you cannot build anything, and its knowledge was key to survival, and believed to be a key to unlocking the secrets of the universe. Almost literally, geometry meant contact with the gods. It was considered a way of imitating the structure where the sun (probably the first god) and the moon (probably the second god) governed the natural order early man believed if he could “map” the universe, he would be able to predict the whims of gods, who sent punishing droughts, floods and pestilence on the land around him.
