| Description | Designed in the more recent International style, the architect blends brick, concrete, and glass. |
| The floor in the sancutuary grades upward in a gradual sweep toward the Ark to convey the |
| feeling of ascent, which also insures unhindered vision. The same grid system motif in |
| Gropius' high-rise office and residential structures was used as an architectural element in the |
| Ark area. |
| Style | International |
| Bibliography |

| belief. |
