Religions historically have formed the most inspiring client base for architecture and design worldwide. Whereas it was long expected that religion would fade out, the opposite is happening. As a counterweight to a world in the grips of neoliberalism, new and often hybridised forms of worshiping are sprouting. It shows how different communities around the world are reinventing their on belief systems, rituals, and spiritual dimensions. Volume 67 presents contributions by, amongst others, David J. Cross, Iwan Baan, Jacques-Marie Ligot, Kuen Malvezzi, Lou Mo, Madelon Grant, Organizmo, Yotam Sion and Erez Levanon.
