For its main feature, this edition showcases three European examples of the small church typology. In their diversity, these churches – sited in the Czech Republic, Sicily, and Tenerife – illustrate the breadth of interpretations that contemporary architecture can apply to identical liturgical criteria. In addition, the magazine examines urban context, morphological rhythm, and material imagination through the theme “Continuity vs. Intermittence”, with three projects in South Korea: Seoul Theater Creation Center, Photography Seoul Museum of Art, and Elystay Boryeong. The issue also presents new projects by Benedetta Tagliabue and EMBT Architects, Colectivo C733, and more.
