	La Sagrada Familia@Everything2.com
		The title Temple Expiatori (expiatory temple) indicates that the building of the church is meant to atone for sin and to appeal for God's mercy on Catalunya.
		La Sagrada Familia is on a North-South axis, with the altar and apse at the north.
		The reason for this is to be found in the symbolism of the church's three façades: the façade of life, with imagery of plants and animals, the birth of Christ and his early life, faces the east, so the sun shines on it in the morning, in keeping with its theme of beginnings.

	Sagrada Familia, Barcelona, Spain - Travel Photos by Galen R Frysinger, Sheboygan, Wisconsin
		La Sagrada Família (Catalan, 'The Holy Family') is a large Roman Catholic basilica under construction in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
		Every part of the design of La Sagrada Família is rich with Christian symbolism, as Gaudí intended the church to be the "last great sanctuary of Christendom".
		Antoni Gaudí used hyperboloid structures in later designs of the Sagrada Família (more obviously after 1914), however there are a few places on the nativity façade—a design not equated with Gaudi's ruled-surface design, where the hyperboloid crops up.
