Milestone Church

Carefully placed along the slopes of Keller, this first phase sets the foundation for a campus that feels both expansive and grounded

Project Brief

GFF’s Faith & Community Studio completed the  design for Milestone Church’s new campus, located on a hilly, heavily wooded 52-acre site in Keller, Texas. This initial phase includes a 70,000-square-foot building featuring an expandable 1,500-seat worship space, children’s education areas, a community commons, administration space, and various site improvements such as patios, a hike-and-bike trail, and parking. 

The design thoughtfully integrates the building with the natural landscape, using stone and capitalizing on scenic views and access to outdoor spaces. The site’s constraints were used to guide the placement of the project’s components in a sensitive and practical manner. This design approach ensures that the building blends harmoniously with its surroundings, providing a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor environments.
