The basilica style of architecture is commonly referred to as "basilican" architecture. Originating in ancient Rome, it typically features a rectangular layout with a central nave flanked by aisles, a raised platform, and an apse at one or both ends. This design was adapted for Christian churches, allowing for larger congregations and enhancing the liturgical experience. The style has influenced various architectural forms throughout history.
