Sometimes that contemporary space lacks touches that speak to the need we humans have for things that minister to the soul and the imagination.
Faith UMC in Tulsa is a modern design, featuring some lovely contemporary stained glass but also in one corner of the sanctuary was an arrangement of column with greenry. Modern design can be sterile and institutional if there are not steps taken to soften and humanize the extremes. Many churches have followed modernistic styles but have incorporated rocks, water, and plants to bring a naturalistic element into the worship experience (Church of the Servant in OKC is one).
