Hear Ye! The New 10 Commandments for Architecture Nicholas Korody2017-01-26T12:22:00-05:00>2018-01-30T06:16:04-05:00

After all, when your job is to shape the world we all have to live in, it’s a good idea to make sure you know what you’re doing. But dictates, like the profession itself, need to change with time. So we asked around to find out what today’s architectural “ten commandments” should be. Turns out that, in the 21st century, defining <em>how</em> we practice seems to be more of a concern than establishing rules for what it is we make.</p>

In this iteration, we speak with LeRoy Troyer, the president and chair of Troyer Group. Troyer Group is probably best-known for their project “<a href="http://archinect.com/news/article/149957279/noah-s-ark-replica-opens-in-kentucky-biblical-theme-park-to-compete-with-the-disneys-and-the-universals" target="_blank">Ark Encounter</a>”, a full-scale replica of Noah’s Ark, built according to plans interpreted from Genesis.</p>

More to the point: how does one renovate an existing place of worship to suit a new dogma? Johnson Fain’s renovation of Philip Johnson and John Burgee’s Crystal Cathedral is the culmination of metaphor, media, and the historical Christian tradition of repurposing. </p>
