Christ Church | AODK :: Architecture Office :: David Krebs

The project is a new church facility with 500 seat auditorium , 8,500 main gallery, 2 story office and classroom wing. The vacant property was long and narrow along a primary road. The goal was to create a light filled auditorium and facility that will promote fellowship along with a major focus on developing a strong youth program. The solution was to develop a main common area themed "Main Street" that connects all of the program spaces. Main Street is 2 stories and runs the length of the facility with 26' glass ends. From this main area, all of the program spaces are visible. One main clear entry is provided to promote fellowship and interaction. A separated infant area is securely located across from the auditorium entry and visible from the main entry. The project design included all of the specialty consulting for lighting, acoustics video and sound. The master plan has been designed to include a 1,500 seat auditorium, family life center, youth center and training facility.
