At The Center - Sustainability In Religious Places, October 26
10.20.09 | New York, NY | For many religious groups, caring for the environment is not an option
but a spiritual imperative. For such congregations, green design goes
beyond building materials and systems to address the relationship of the
building to the site and of the congregants to nature. The relationship
of man to nature and nature to spirituality has dramatically changed in
this era of environmental awareness.
The program God Comes To Earth explores ways in which architects can design places of prayer that acknowledge this paradigm shift. Sustainability will be a key factor.
