The Abrahamic Family House ... inter-religious community.
Abrahamic Family House design unveiled
01 October 2019
Leading global architect Sir David Adjaye, the founder and principal of Adjaye Associates, has launched the design of the Abrahamic Family House, which will come up on Saadiyat Island in the UAE capital Abu Dhabi.
The design was unveiled at a key meeting of the Higher Committee of Human Fraternity held in New York, US, recently.
A reflection of the Document on Human Fraternity, a church, mosque and synagogue will share a collective space for the first time, serving as a community for inter-religious dialogue and exchange, and nurturing the values of peaceful co-existence and acceptance among different beliefs, nationalities and cultures.
Expressing delight at the design being selected for the project, Adjaye said: “I believe architecture should work to enshrine the kind of world we want to live in, a world of tolerance, openness, and constant advancement.”
