Community Christian Church, Church building in Kansas City, Missouri.
This church building features a distinctive rhombus shape and pressure-sprayed concrete over corrugated steel, demonstrating innovative construction methods developed during the middle of the twentieth century.
Built in 1940 by Frank Lloyd Wright, this structure was conceived as the church of the future, though many original design elements were not implemented due to financial constraints and wartime shortages.
The sanctuary seats approximately 900 congregants and is known for its exceptional acoustics, making it suitable for large gatherings and musical performances within the local community.
The church offers guided tours that allow visitors to explore its architectural features and understand Wright's design principles, serving as an educational destination for those interested in modern architecture.
A perforated dome atop the chancel roof allows natural light to filter into the sanctuary, and at night a Steeple of Light projector illuminates the sky for up to three miles.
