Church of the Holy Archangels

The Church of the Holy Archangels, located in Sevan Town, Gegharkunik Province, exemplifies a modern approach to Armenian ecclesiastical architecture. Completed in 2015, the church features a simple, asymmetric design with contemporary forms, while still maintaining elements of traditional Armenian architecture. The structure is built from red tuff, with subtle niches and a clean, minimalist aesthetic.

The church’s 25-meter height and 250 sqm area are marked by a restrained yet impactful composition. The use of geometric shapes and modern architectural principles contrasts with the time-honored material, creating a harmonious balance between tradition and innovation. The interior, designed to enhance the spiritual atmosphere, is also minimalist, allowing for a sense of openness and tranquility.

This church stands as a refined architectural piece, thoughtfully integrated into its setting, and serves both as a place of worship and a symbol of contemporary Armenian design.
