Stained Glass for Salt Lake City Churches & Temples
Stained glass had held popularity in religious architecture throughout the world for centuries. Originally, painted glass windows were added to European cathedrals as a means of educating the illiterate on religious ideology and beliefs. By adding stained glass windows painted with biblical scenes, the members of the congregation who could not read could still follow along with understand the stories of the Bible. Now, stained glass continues to play an important role in modern day churches for both aesthetic and practical reasons. Stained glass is commonly used to create an interesting focal point in sanctuary, prayer, and chapel rooms by adding color, texture, and beauty. And because stained glass reduces window transparency, many churches use it as a way of adding privacy to a room to create a feeling of comfort and seclusion.
