Faith & Community — Master Planning

Faith & Community Master Planning allows clients to dream about creating a place of unique character that reflects who they are and how they want to extend their ministry.  We guide our clients by listening to their dreams and developing a conceptual layout to guide their future growth. Through a series of programming meetings with client representatives and collaborative design charettes, our team develops a long-term campus plan which can be implemented in phases as needed.
