Form-Function Relationships In The Development Of Lds Church Architecture, Ebbie Lavar Davis

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the functions: ordinances, meetings, programs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the development of the physical plant. Inversely, the effect of Church house forms on the development of Church function was investigated. It was found that:
1. In Latter-day Saint Church development, form has always followed function.

Yale University Library Gazette Special Issue On The Sterling Memorial Library, Volume V, Number 4 (April 1931), Yale University Library

Publications on Yale History

The essence of a library is the bookstack, tier upon tier of self-supporting shelves with long slits of windows lighting narrow aisles. In the evolution of the modern library, it has become almost a matter of course to treat this structure as something to be subordinated in the exterior design. Not infrequently it becomes the rear facade, obscured behind a screen of monumental rooms. In the design of the Sterling Memorial Library, one of the first principles was the placing of the stack in the most accessible and important position on the site and its direct expression as the dominating …
