Cultural (Church) Adaptive Reuse
This adaptive reuse two phase project involved the merging of two lots, replacing the roof of an existing postal sorting facility, and omitting the second floor or an already existing multipurpose building. By reusing most of the existing structure (walls and floors) we were able to minimize resources and time. By enhancing the exterior façade we were able to give it a completely new look and feel while honoring the Coptic Orthodox traditions which echo the past but in a modern day. The existing multipurpose building received a new roof.



We defy the status quo and prioritize our clients vision and budget above our ego.
