Abstract Details

2007, MARCH, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art and Planning : Architecture (Master of).
Since the Second Vatican Council architects, theologians, and society have been struggling to define what being a Catholic church in a modern world is and how it must manifest itself to the public. Forty years post Vatican II, the Catholic Church needs to look at Vatican II documents to understand that the Council always hoped that the few changes being made would be treated in the context of the organic growth and tradition of the Church. By studying Council documents, the liturgy, tradition, and church precedents, this thesis hopes to find appropriate design considerations and arrangements for Catholic churches in the true spirit of Vatican II and the times.
