My interest in church typology has derived from personal experience and observation. Many Asian has come to embrace Christianity, which is fundamentally a western religion. However, most of the churches for the Asian communities follow western and modernist aesthetics. Therefore I believe that there resides a design opportunity to address church design for the Asian community that reflects Asian cultural and design sensibilities. I propose to draw upon (and further research) into the rich repertoire of Asian design that has traditionally engaged wide spectrum of human senses.

If you can get more specfic about what you mean here, that would be great. whta is missing to make it more "asian"? is this a matter of design or ritual or both? if design, outline how.
