K. Jordan and S. Saleem (eds) ‘Sacred, Spiritual Secular: Spaces of Faith in the Twenty-First Century’ Guest edited special issue of Architecture and Culture, Volume 10 no.4 (2024)
The starting point for this Special Issue of Architecture and Culture was a conference hosted by the University of Westminster in association with the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) in 2019, entitled “Spiritual Sacred Secular: The Architecture of Faith in Modern Britain.” While the conference focused on Britain, we were aware of an important gap in the literature on global faith spaces in late modernity, and sought to explore it through a collection of written papers. The contributions to this issue have been selected to highlight the wide diversity of methods and practices used to read faith spaces.
