DESCRIPTION: This is a new church
building built on a small 1/7 acre site. The program called for this
new building to replace a much smaller church dating from the 1940s.
The older church was incorporated into the design as a parish hall.
The design called for an outdoor central plaza for gatherings and
to serve as the entryway to the parish hall and church spaces. Our work
as the Liturgical Design architect, focused on the interior circulation
and adobe altar areas. Designed to seat a congregation of 250, the
main sanctuary space also incorporated a baptistery and a choir
area. |
