Schindler Elizabeth Reese House, Sagoponack, New York, designed by Andrew Geller Numerous examples in Washington state. Numerous examples, including historic kits and (recent?) "Yosemite-adjacent" ones, in Curbed 12 A-frame houses in Northcrest Historic District, Atlanta, Georgia Ranger cabin, Oregon, in Zig-zag Ranger District Park City, Utah ski houses (two being demolished, but do others survive?) Religious examples A-frame buildings which had been made popular since 1955 by Andrew Geller were built for churches across the world. The modern shape was reinterpreted spiritually as representing "hands at prayer" since 1961 and the design of the Holy Cross Anglican Church in Tokyo by the Czech-born American architect Antonin Raymond. His use of interlaced pillars was inspired by the traditional Japanese traditional country minka houses known as gasshō-zukuri (合掌造り), literally "clasped-hands style". The first A-shape church seems to be the Simpson Methodist Church in 1957 in Pullman, Washington. The style was in 1960 adopted by the Catholic Church to build Saint Joseph Church, Lynden, Washington just before the Our Lady of Fatima Roman Catholic Church in 1961. It was used most impressively for the United States Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel inaugurated in 1962. At the same time, the A-frame used was in Europe as early 1959 for Bakkehaugen Church in Norway by architect Ove Bang who was an advocate of functionalism. When the Arctic Cathedral in 1965, the A-frame church had become a new identity of religious architecture in Scandinavia. It spread to Europe and was used in 1967 to build the Yaddlethorpe Methodist Church in Yaddlethorpe. The A-shape religious building made it across the Pacific Ocean to New Zealand with the Whiteley Memorial Methodist Church dedicated on 19 October 1963 considered as "Taranaki's most beautiful building". Christian religious buildings have also adopted the A-style architecture mainly in South East Asia. The first example after Japan might be the Luce Memorial Chapel in Taiwan in 1963, followed by Saint Michael's Church in Sihanoukville in 1965, Xavier Hall Catholic Church in Bangkok in 1972, or the Church of the Pastoral Center in Da Lat in 2010 are some examples of a similar architectural style. This style is still popular in Europe also, as in Henry's Ecumenical Art Chapel in Finland in 2005.
