On Sacramental Architecture, I: The Intersection
"In short, the intersection between the transcendent
world and this one has always created or required
an architecture that ultimately restructures society
itself. Or better, perhaps we should say this:
humans inevitably feel that a certain architecture
is needed to summon the transcendent into this world.
The reverse is also true: when the correct architecture
is constructed, (we feel) the transcendent will be
compelled to inhabit it willy-nilly:
"Build it and they will come."
