It can be incredibly difficult to break tradition, but the Gethsemane Lutheran Church has delved into an entirely modern design with its makeover. The multicolored design was created by Olson Kundig Architects and it's an absolutely breathtaking display as the sunlight shines through the windows during the day.
The design is surely inspired from the iconic stained glass windows that decorate many of the older churches. That kaleidoscope feel has now been evolved and elevated by the new design of the Gethsemane Lutheran Church. The effect is achieved through the many various hues that the glass windows are coated in. As the sun moves around during the day, it casts the different colors as light throughout the church.
