Using architecture as an enhancer and reinforcer of spirituality : United Methodist Seminary, Osceola, Indiana

This document is representative of a nine month architectural thesis study. Its main objective is to take an intensive look at an issue concerning architectural design, the use of architecture as a reinforcer, an enhancer of human spirituality - and then to test my findings in an actual and original series of design projects involved within a protestant (Methodist) seminary. This thesis is by no means the answer to a problem. It is intended to be a way of increasing mine and, hopefully, other's awareness of an issue and show a possible alternative to the applications of my findings.
