A month or so back, the Church released an updated render for the Yorba Linda Temple. The change was necessitated by a request from the city to lower the height of the steeple. This the Church complied with, and the design for the temple went from a post-modern design with Art-deco and Spanish influences to a modern design with Spanish influences with just a few simple changes.

I’m not entirely sold on the new design, I am not certain the massing of the spire is appropriate for the overall building, but I am sure the architect did what he could with the restrictions they were working under. And there is the distinct possibility that I am entirely missing aspects of the design that make it work better.

Well, I’m slowly working through all of these temple models I need to finish. There are a bunch now, and I have been focusing on other projects. But, here is the model for Yorba Linda California Temple.

I want to make it clear, this is guesswork. I don’t know what the landscaping will look like, I just kind of made it up. I fully expect I will have to redo this once more info comes out.
