G.I.B.E. New Renderings

The GIBE Building Team met with Mark W. Todd Architects before Thanksgiving week and here are the latest and greatest renderings for the work for Phase 1. Please remember when looking at the renderings, all finishes ARE NOT finalized, so the renderings are not 100% accurate for colors or finishes.  The renderings show the scope and scale of the design before finishes have been chosen by the GIBE Building Team.

WHAT YOU WILL SEE IN THE RENDERINGS
Redesigned Welcome Center: You can see the updated style which will incorporate wood and sheetrock to include our modern and traditional style of church. As the design progresses from the Welcome Center down the hallway to the Sanctuary Narthex, you will notice the touches of wood on the columns to make a smooth transition to the more traditional style sanctuary.  
WECOME CENTER
  • A centralized welcome desk for guest services and added security
  • The addition of a vestibule to assist with security and climate control
  • A spacious JW Kids entrance
  • A more functional and inviting hospitality kitchen (Sunday donuts & coffee station) 
  • A moveable glass wall to create an additional adult classroom
  • Upgraded bathrooms for men and women
SANCTUARY
  • A redesigned chancel area with raised choir loft, reposition of organ under organ chamber, and filling in the chancel area steps to extend useable space
  • Updated seating, flooring, and acoustic panels
  • Audio, Visual, and Lighting & Bell Choir booth in back
  • A refreshed Narthex and improved bathrooms
  • Easily moveable backdrop screen for modern worship
NEW FAMILY ROOM (Cry Room)
