현대 한국고층교회의 공간위계 풍경 비판

Abstract

This thesis is to criticize for what purpose the church's inner space is divided and occupied in modern Korean high-rise church architecture which is based on rectangular space of Roman Catholic Church rather than on square plane of Orthodox Church. It is a study on hierarchical division of church's inner space that has been carried on to worship and practise service, ministration, mission work and other complex functions. It will theologize hierarchy of plan composition and spatial arrangement built to effectively perform worship and various pastoral authorities. The church space will be divided briefly into main chapel, crypt(small chapel), the senior clergy office, the office, parking lot and cafeteria and will be studied with focus on why and where every space is arranged in a high-rise church building. Although differences may exist depending on missionary theology and policy of church, in order that church building serves as the space of mission with worship, prayer and friendship combined, the church has to firstly decide hierarchy of spaces and try to be a modest, public place where anyone can stay comfortable and access freely. However, the hierarchy of Modern Korean high-rise church building space has become a standard for the minister's ostentation and quantitative expansion of church. The object of this thesis is to correct the perception of church space by analysing the theological and pastoral factors that the church has to keep in mind for spatial division and by guiding critical opinions towards space already built.
