REFRESH

It is time to refresh your building. All size projects are important to us.

We provide a new facelift by updating your existing building, in order to bring it to modern day aesthetics and functionality.

First Baptist Church Morrison

First Baptist Church Morrison
This project involved the construction of a new 514-seat sanctuary as a major addition to the church’s original facility. Designed to complement and enhance the existing structure, the addition significantly expands the church’s worship capacity while introducing a refreshed architectural identity. View Project

Daycare

Daycare
A typical daycare space in the traditional church building is now the fun and exciting space children love to flock to. The modern, secure check-in center for receiving the children affords the parents comfort knowing the children are safe.  The individual play areas are upgraded with soft carpeted floors and comfortable  furnishings for the children to relax and enjoy their play time on.  The modern elements and bright colors on the walls make for an all-around pleasant experience for the children.
