This project was the restoration of the interior of a traditional church which in the 1980s an addition and renovation had reoriented the church 90 degrees from the original orientation. The result was a low space which turned the focus away from a beautiful high altar and tabernacle.
The renovation returned the church to its original orientation and removed the 1980s altar platform. The choir was relocated to the new addition wing and a new baptismal area in the narthex created.
The original high altar and tabernacle were restored and are now the focus of the new restored sanctuary.
