Calvary Lutheran Church

Master Plan / Renovation

Calvary came to Mr. Brown for an immediate expansion to their existing sanctuary and the construction of a new Gathering space along with a Master Plan planning for future renovations over the next ten years. The Sanctuary expansion and renovation involved the removal of a balcony and vestry, sacristy and corner stairs. The problem was all the heating and air-conditioning was located in these corners. The sanctuary also had a solid wood deck ceiling and the Fire Marshal was calling for a sprinkler system throughout the building. The program also called for a new organ that was currently being refurbished for the space.

After considerable study BBA-A proposed a cross element in the upper space that would contain all of the technical elements (HVAC ducts, Sprinkler, Room Lighting and Altar/organ lighting). The space was expanded for seating and the volume was greatly expanded to get the reverberation times needed for the massive pipe organ. The cross was a huge success and serves as a preaching point that we all are quite literally under the banner of the cross.

The church did not have a single entry that presented a welcoming message to those driving up. In this phase we were able to provide two new entries into an oversized Gathering space with beautiful shaded courtyard views.
