    Volume 52, Issue 4: 2019 Annual Awards Issue

    There were more than 100 submissions to this year’s awards program; remarkably many of them from abroad. As you will see in the pages that follow, a substantial number of the winners are from outside the US—a total of 9 winning projects out of the 29 winners—nearly a third of those elevated. Five projects were recognized for honor awards, and all but one of these winners is from abroad. This indicates...

    A total of 127 Submissions to the awards program this year represented an increase of about 7 percent over the number of last year’s entrants—good news indeed. One thing that impressed this year’s awards jury were considerations about how designs related to the larger community, attempting to address the need and forge connections between the faith community and the context. These projects told a story about how the design of the worship environment...

Goodbye (for now)

Michael J. Crosbie

With this issue of Faith & Form, we close a history of publishing on the reflection, design, construction, and use of religious architecture and art that started more than 50 years ago. This issue will be the last published by Faith & Form, and it is wholly fitting that it presents the winning work of architects, designers, artists, and students who are engaged in the search for how human and divine spirit is expressed in what we build for worship (even in those … [Read More...]

The Last Word

To Friends and Family

As you’ve read in Michael J. Crosbie’s “Editor’s Page” (page 4), this will be Faith & Form’s last issue as a stand-alone publication. When we on Faith & Form’s Board of Directors sat down to write this letter to our faithful readers and friends—many of whom have been with us for decades—we are a little sad, but mostly hopeful. When anything changes significantly, it is often difficult to look beyond what needs to be done immediately—and the future seems like it is … [Read More...]

“Faith & Form remains one of the singular professional publications dedicated solely to discussions of liturgical architecture and art in the United States.In an age of ubiquitous digital media, nebulous opinion, and piecemeal conversations, Faith & Form provides a needed and rare hard-copy and editorially-driven presentation.

Ghosts of projects unbuilt. Do they haunt architects, or provide inspiration and direction for future work? I discuss his unbuilt architecture with architect Moshe Safdie in a new book, With Intention to Build, excerpted in @CommEdgeCollab @AIANational commonedge.org/moshe-safdie-t…
