Sant'Achille, Modern church in Rome, Italy

Sant'Achille is a modern church in Rome built with curved white walls and a four-leaf clover-shaped main auditorium. The complex also includes a parish center with classrooms and clergy quarters, topped with a green roof.

The church opened in 1973 and introduced a fresh architectural approach to religious buildings in Rome. This opening marked a turning point in how modern churches were designed in the city.

Translucent fabrics hang from the high ceilings and create shifting light patterns throughout the interior. These elements shape how worshippers experience the space during services and quiet moments of reflection.

The interior spaces are designed to accommodate many people during services and events. The modern layout provides good sightlines and movement throughout the building.

An illuminated cross marks the entrance and glows at night, serving as a visual guide. The minimalist walls inside emphasize the building's structural forms and draw the eye upward.
