New Buildings” ¼ Century Old

 Older (and new er) Structures Aging/ Declining  New Pope  New Parish Initiatives / New Spirit  Future Direction? Future Mission? Future Needs?

Utilize Approach That Was:

Com prehensive, Integrated & Thus Cost-Effective

Sensible & Transparent

Yet Be Mindful of Cost-Effectiveness:

1.

“ Phased-in” approach achieves m ost im provem ent - for the least cost - at each stage.

2.

Avoid “ m issteps” requiring unnecessary future retrofitting or m issed

REVIEW PARISH PRIORITI

TIES AND AND BEGI GIN PROGR GRAMMI MING

We then took the top 3 parish priorities and developed a list of 6 questions for each of the parish programs.

  • 1. Describe the program?
  • 2. To what age group(s) will it be offered?
  • 3. What kind of gathering /meeting space will be

needed?

  • 4. How many groups will be formed and how many

people will be in each group?

  • 5. Is there an existing room(s) that will work?
  • 6. What else does the room need to be successful?

REQUE

UEST FO FOR PR PROPO OPOSAL FO FOR ARCH CHITE TECT

  • 1. The responses to the 6 questions were summarized

into a spreadsheet that was then used in the RFP for the selection of the Architect.

  • 2. The RFP was sent to 5 architecture firms. The

building committee then evaluated the proposals and narrowed it down to 2 firms.

  • 3. The two firms were then invited back and given a

“Design Challenge”

slide-34
SLIDE 34

DESIGN

GN CHA HALLENGE

  • 1. The transition from secular space. How would your firm approach

modifying the existing entry to include a place for coffee and donuts as well as a welcome center and gathering area. Through oral presentation and visual aids (renderings, elevations, etc.) explain how your firm would approach the design of this transition and provide a concept plan for discussion.

  • 2. The acoustics within the church is a critical part of the worship
  • experience. What would the firm consider to be a successful solution

to the acoustics issue?
