Creating a sense of space
Crosspointe is a young, growing, and vibrant church, occupying an old 60's A-frame church. They turned to Ethos Architecture to devolop a new image for their church as they expand.
Our design offers a contemporary new look to reflect the style of the young congregation. An emphasis on the outdoor courtyard utilizes Southern California's ideal weather, and roll up glass doors to the lobby will create a free flow between the inside and outside. The courtyard follows the site's natural contours, and creates many small pocket spaces for groups to get together, without the "red square" feeling that many churches have with very open courtyards. Multiple levels of visual interaction will connect these small groups, and create a very dynamic courtyard experience.
