A Complicated Organism - The Architecture of the Global Morovian Network 1722–1922

The modern Moravian Church is notable as an independent religious movement that for over two centuries developed a highly interconnected global network of settlements and mission stations. By 1800, close to 20 carefully planned Moravian communities had been established on either side of the Atlantic Ocean. Part of the CCSA Topics series, ‘A Complicated Organism’ examines the role of architecture and spatial thinking in enabling the modern Moravians to perform their unique brand of organisational governance, aimed at establishing similar conditions in diverse environments scattered across an increasingly connected world.
