The new multi-purpose chapel and expanded children’s education wing at Woodmont Christian Church honors the tradition of the originally designed sanctuary from 1948 by Edwin Keeble (1905-1979) .  The chapel volume is oriented on a slight 15 degree angle to center its axis and focus on the existing 220-foottall spire.  The white-painted brick form is simple and elegant to both reflect the existing architecture, while its clean modern details are indicative of the contemporary worship service to which this will become home. The interior of the chapel will be a crisp, light filled environment with accents of soaring natural wood trusses.  The remaining gathering spaces and children’s education wing will be designed to integrate worship with families and playfulness with colorful flexible classrooms, a kids’ gathering/chapel space, and a large communicating stair anchoring a two-story gathering space that serves as informal seating and is complemented by a sculptural play slide.
