A TRULY “REFORMED” CHURCH.—TOP: An interior drawing of the planned new Reformed Church for the Im Gut area of Zurich, Switzerland. The church was designed by Professor Hofmann. BOTTOM: A model of the church. Professor Hofmann applied new ideas for the layout, as he wanted it to be truly “reformed” and not like other churches. He arranged the benches for the worshippers in curves towards the font in the front. The clock tower has many gables distributed ail over its height, which give the light effect of a Christmas tree.
