Problem

Without a place regarded as sacred and clearly set apart from the everyday, a community lacks any counterweight to the business of ordinary life. Reverence needs a space in which it can take root.

Solution

Create a place the community holds sacred, and set it apart from daily life through a sequence of thresholds a person must cross, so that the approach itself deepens the sense of reverence.
