Church projects offer specific challenges in crafting spaces that function well for often large numbers while maintaining a sense of intimacy and fellowship. Specific solutions will only come from a thorough understanding of the aims and culture of a specific congregation, which must be the starting point in developing a proposal. Several members of the Archangel team are actively involved in worshipping communities across a range of traditions, giving us an appropriate sensitivity in approaching these projects. We also have extensive conservation experience, which in many cases is a key consideration in modernising existing buildings for the evolving needs of the modern church.
