With very tight site limits and a demand for at least 3m setback on all 3 sides, this Church auditorium measures 7x13m excluding the alter, and features a single step 200 capacity gallery.

The shading device provides protection from the sun while the glass walls, together with adequate lighting, painting and the resulting great ambience in the interiors, improve the organic feel and creates an atmosphere that welcomes passersby to worship.

It is expected to give the church brand an elite, forward looking, open-minded, modern identity.

With its simple post, lintel and slab structure, glass partitions, steel trusses, lean to roof and metal shading devices, the concept assures of a cost effective, simple, straight forward design, plus less stress during construction.

This design was submitted by Uzoh Udochukwu Chikezirim.
