This is a design for a new church building in Rolleston, Canterbury, that is just about to move into construction.

White brick and metal cladding systems are separated by a glazed central foyer that opens to the east and west, providing access into the building from two directions.

The building includes a large worship auditorium for over 400 people, multi-use lounge spaces, offices and a kitchen.

Because of budget constraints, the forms along with the material selection have been kept simple. Despite this, we believe the building will have a strong presence on the site and provide excellent facilities for the congregation and local community.
